Speaking of Weapons of Mass Destruction

Power Line Notes that [1]:

“In the four days since that blockbuster news item appeared, not a single news outlet has picked it up. Not one newspaper. Not one magazine. Not, as far as I can tell, a single television news show. The blackout has been complete. The story sank like a seven-pound block of cyanide in a sea of indifference.
This would seem to be the most extreme example yet recorded of the news media’s unwillingness to disturb an established story line. The discovery of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq cannot be allowed to disrupt the Story of this election year: that there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.”

He’s correct, of course.
