Bill GreenPAKISTAN COOPERATING WITH TERRORISM - ANOTHER FIRST FOR TALKING HEADLINES
December 4th 2008 23:09
US Intelligence agencies have finally confessed that Pakistan's military is cooperating with terrorists, even giving them training and support (Today's Australian, PAGE 9). I reported in September that this was happening, and even earlier on another blog, Exposing Humour. It was easy to read the situation but once a blundering bureaucracy gets into the habit of handing out hundreds of millions of dollars they believe, like th US in this example, that they are controlling things. Naive guys.
Maybe ABC News, who I castigated some days ago for not having a journalist capable of reporting the facts of Pakistan and the terrorists, will begin to get the reality. Actually I was wrong on that matter. The ABC have plenty of journalists capable of squirreling this information out, just not the capacity or influence to guide ABC News hierarchy on the true course of objective journalism. Objectivity is not reporting official comments and announcements for they are never without spin for a docile media.
