Tel-Chai Nation

Michelle Malkin reports on how Steve Centanni and Olaf Wiig are still being held prisoner by the PLO/Hamas in Gaza, but which the MSM, in all their possible FOXophobia, are all but silent about:

The most common suspicion among my readers is that bias against Fox News Channel is coming into play. Another possible factor may be Fox's own internal strategy of keeping the story low-key while it negotiates for Centanni and Wiig's release. Or is it because Centanni is not a high-profile player in the Washington media scene--not a spotlight-hogging insider or industry schmoozer?

Whatever the reason, I find the apparent apathy about Centanni and Wiig's kidnapping grossly disturbing. Centanni is not just a fellow journalist. He is a fellow American. He is missing. And there should be a hell of a lot more outrage about it than I've seen so far--from the media, from our government, from our nation.

While the AP has now issued a report, and CNN did report about the case, if they didn't do it immediately, that can be a sign that their bias against FOX is what made them go slowly about it.

Keep these two good journalists in your prayers, everyone.

The New Zealand ambassador has issued a statement as well. Read also Joel Mowbray's article about PLO antagonism towards journalists.
