Why’s the media so interested in 1 dead Saudi but didn’t care about 4 dead Americans?

Rush just mentioned this and I thought I’d ask here.

Why is it that the American Media is so obsessed over a Saudi reporter murdered in Turkey in the one hand but was (and still is) completely uninterested in the 4 murdered Americans (one of which was the US Ambassdor) killed in the 2012 Benghazi attack??

What’s so special about this Saudi dude?

Its an attempt to pin the murder on the Trump administration.

I thought the same thing this morning when the 7:00 news talking heads started off on this story.

That isn't true.

They covered it well up until they found out that it wasn't actually part of a spontaneous protest but part of a well-coordinated attack.

I'm more disturbed about the missing 13 year old girl and her murdered parents in Wisconsin. This Saudi guy was a POS.

What amazes me is figs being dropped on their heads off of 4 story buildings doesn't even make the news but this guy is all of a sudden all over it...

I mean, I know why the media didn't cover Benghazi... Not covering the figs is just not being true to their beliefs...

Because they think that we aren't far away from Fox News televising Trump chopping up a member of the press corps in the Oval Office.

Because Trump wasn’t behind the murders at Benghazi, silly. Well we can never say never.

Probably because of the numerous investigations into benghazi that turned up no wrong-doing.

Also.. have you considered why Rush is so interested in whataboutism on this particular issue?

I haven't figured out why we're all supposed to care about this honestly. I mean I feel bad for the guy's family and whatnot but big picture what's the big deal? Barbaric behavior in the ME? Go figure.

In case you haven’t noticed, things haven’t been going to well for the Dims and the Dim Media. I would say their desperation has reached code red levels and they’re grasping for anything to hurt Trump and his baws. Midterms are extremely critical for the short term survival of the Dim party so expect more hyperbolic BS reporting right up to 11/06/2018.

One of the 4 killed was the ambassador. The MSM is more concerned about a non-citizen that is a journalist, than an ambassador of the US.
They keep hitting new lows. This is a new low for them, but they are too blind to see it.
