The Corbett Report | Sunday Update – 2011/05/08: "Osama Bin Laden has allegedly been shot dead by Navy SEALs at a private residence in Abottabad, Pakistan, according to one of numerous contradictory reports given by the US government this week.
In the latest development, soundless videos of someone seen from behind watching a TV image of Obama have been released along with years-old tape to convince the public that the person allegedly shot and killed last Sunday was in fact Osama Bin Laden.
It has yet to be explained how the release of this footage in any way supports the idea that Osama Bin Laden was shot and killed last week and immediately buried at sea, nor how silent, undated images of someone who may or may not have been Bin Laden disprove the assertion made by numerous heads of state and counterterrorism officials that he has been dead for years (like Asif Ali Zardari, Hamid Gul and Steve Pieczenik).
The administration has been able to dominate the 24/7 news cycle for one week now by providing a completely unskeptical establishment media with a story that, it now turns out, was completely wrong in every respect and then retracting that story piece by piece."
