"60 minutes" and the Benghazi Scandal Trap
The New Yorker
November 12, 2013
-
How could using a balance in research and reporting tactics have made a difference in the outcome of what was reported
- Taking time to collect data and information from other witnesses prior for questioning could've ended the interview on a truthful note.
- A more descriptive explanation of that night would've helped is case and statement to be more believable
Playing Devils Advocate, The Opposing View
- Given the history of cover-ups throughout history itself, if it was true that benghazi was downplayed as the witness like him state, it could be possible that the FBI was covering up the actual story to save Clinton of the apparent war crime that the Obama administration committed.
- It could be possible the effects of the attack that night and the severity of the conditions could have taken a toll on him clouded some of the spot on details of that happened that evening.
- The FBI was a bit fishy on not providing the information of the statement sooner
-
Personal Opinion on the issue, what formed the opinion
- I feel the reporter knew the data was unstable provided by the person of interest However, the reporter wanted to protect their name and the name of the show, again backfiring.
- I feel at the moment where benghazi was such a hot topic in the media, 60 minutes rushed on the opportunity on the interview wagon without confirming truthful data prior, which backfired on them
- I think he used the night of benghazi as an advantage to fabricate details in his favor
