"380 Tons of Explosive Story" - SEE "DRUDGE"

Yeah, no problem there, no story.

You must be logged in to read this quote.

You missed it, again.  Here it is:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6323933/

"The war in Iraq began March 20. Army officials told NBC News on condition of anonymity that troops from the Army’s 3rd Infantry did not arrive at Al-Qaqaa until April 4, finding “looters everywhere” carrying what they could out on their backs."

You have them guard something that wasn't there?   When the Army arrived, it was gone.  No recanting, as you previously claimed, either.

God damn you're annoying. Anyways, when the army arrived, they did not do a search then. Searching for the explosives was not a priority. Go read for yourself here.

NOTHING WAS DONE TO SECURE THE AREA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


QUIT MISSING THE GOD DAMN POINT!!!!!

Let me get this straight, MSNBC is a less reliable source for a story about an NBC reporter than KOS is?

The NYT reported that in April  that a search of the facility was thurough enough to find a suspicious white powder, but not 380 tons of high explosives.

This was before the war ended.

I trust NBC, where the story was run.  It wasn't on their website yet.  When it appears, I'll post the link.

NBC retracted after they realized that they and Drudge were wrong.

Link up the retraction, bitte.
