Newsworthyness

Paul Woodward reports from War in Context that on Nov. 8, Steven Rosen, former AIPAC employee once accused of espionage, is suing AIPAC for defamation to the tune of $20 million.

As Woodward points out, though the story was broken by Grant Smith at Antiwar.com, and has been covered by Haaretz and in the US blogosphere, no mainstream US news organization has even mentioned the suit in passing. That's over a week and counting.

We've said it before, true power in the press is more usually and convincingly demonstrated by what is not printed, rather than by what is.

Blog Simple will update if a Google news search turns up any coverage. For your safety, breath holding is discouraged.
