The MSM And Cheney

Why are they still buying this crap? Ackerman fisks away:

Get used to this sort of thing. Cheney needs to spread this sort of nonsense. Every day that the Obama administration rolls back his legacy and the U.S. isn't attacked is another day in which Cheney's contentions that the U.S. needed to embrace torture, preventive war and illegal surveillance in order to be safe is debunked. He has little choice but to spread the counternarrative that we're actually just another day closer to another attack. That isn't surprising. Cheney is what he is. What's worth watching is how many media organizations, in order to secure the Newsmaker Interview, let him get away with it unchallenged.
