The Story is Spreading.

I typically try to avoid commenting on the "big story" because so many others are talking about it and there is (usually) no need to say more on my part. However a lot of my co-bloggers are really taking the MSM to task over its fearful capitualation to the Islamic terrorists and it is A Big Story!!! All that they have said is important and needs to be read. Rather than comment myself, as I would then be a mere echo-chamber for these people, I will instead direct you to them.

Lone Pony seems to lead the Charge. (You go girl!!!) American Press Held Hostage by Islamic Terrorists.

Dr Sanity does her share with The Cowering, Simpering MSM. I love this line from her "This is today's cowering and simperimg MSM. Courageous in demanding it rights when no courage is required; and rationalizing, pandering wimps when integrity and conviction are needed. When intimidated by bullies, they cower; and their is no value that cannot be abandoned."

Little Miss Chatterbox has it as a sub-section of her fine article Mainstream Media Bias - Stuck on Stupid. The comments are definitely worth reading.

Crazy Politico has his take on it and he mentions that even some leftists are sickened by this in his post Great Minds Think Alike.

Armed and Christian been has doing his part by carrying several of his own cartoons. Some of them are real eye-openers. Here here and here.

This list is far from exhaustive as it seems like hundreds of blogs are hitting on this story. I just wish it would shame the MSM into fighting for the freedom that is its very lifeblood.
