New York Times Buries JFK Plot Story


A major terror plot to blow up fuel tanks and a pipeline feeding New York’s JFK airport and nearby residential communities made front-page news this weekend across the nation. The terror story also led all the major network and cable news shows.

But The New York Times didn’t think the story was so important.

In fact, on Sunday the country’s leading liberal daily carried a simple one-paragraph reference to the story on its first page, buried in the news brief section. The Times brief said the plot posed "no imminent danger.”


The front-page brief referred the reader to a full story on Page 30 in the "New York Metro" section of the day’s paper.

Interestingly, the Times story acknowledged the seriousness of the threat, noting that one of the four suspects in the plot, Russell Defreitas, had boasted that the destruction at the airport would be so vast that "even the twin towers can’t touch it.”


The Times reported: "Officials said the four men determined to carry out their attack, having conducted ‘precise and extensive’ surveillance of the airport using photographs, video . . . and satellite images downloaded from Google Earth.

"They said the men had also traveled repeatedly to Guyana and Trinidad in recent months, seeking to obtain the blessing and financial backing of an extremist Muslim group based in Trinidad and Tobago called Jamaat al-Muslimeen, which was behind a failed coup attempt in Trinidad in 1990.”

But in downplaying the story, the Times stressed that the airport was "never in imminent danger because the plot was only in a preliminary phase.”
What did the Times deem fit to print on its front page? The two featured stories on the page were headlined: "A legal debate in Guantanamo on boy fighters” and "President’s push on immigration tests GOP base.”

Perhaps they were waiting for more details about the plot before printing up 20 pages of fear mongering garbage like the NY POST likes to do???? Dumbass.:booted

pretty ironic when all FOX news shows last night started out with Paris Hilton in jail and ripping hillary on the debates instead of mentioning the 13 soldiers killed over the weekend. All other news outlets beg to report how this surge is not working except FoX who feels Paris Hilton is a better lead in story..
Be objective my man

[DJ Becka]

Be objective my man

Thank you.

Honestly, Jamez.....I think people would be more willing to listen to your point of view if you were just a little bit more objective when presenting it......seriously man, you need to chill out....

I'm not blind.....I see things for what they are.....the reason why you get called names is because you really just push people's buttons on here - to the point where all we can do is throw up our hands and call you a pigheaded asshole because that's exactly what you are. People like you cant be debated with because no matter what anyone says, you will always think you are right. I actually have a family member who is just like you - a complete moron who believes everything he sees on fox news and reads in the post......and you know, we used to sit there and listen to his nonsense and just nod like yea....ok :rolleyes: ......but finally, it got to the point where enough was enough - and the rest of the family stood up to him and not only told him what was what - but also told him to stfu. And you want to know what happened to him then? He couldnt take the fact that we were right and didnt have a leg to stand on, so he left the house. Just reading your posts around here tells me that this is exactly the kind of person you are......


And btw, I am a registered democrat, yes, but my views are pretty middle of the road when it comes to most things......so for you to make the assumptions that you do about me - wrong again - you do not know me. Can you please, for future reference, just be a little more objective when you post stuff? I'm asking you this nicely......as I stated before, I think people would be more willing to listen to you if you were just more objective and less of a jerk about it. I actually agree with some of the things you post - sort of - but there's no need to go off and blast people for no reason....its no good for your blood pressure ;)

we just have different views and were debating.. i hold liberal social views being that im pro-choice i believe gun control is good for big cities, im for legalizing certain drugs and prostitution, theres areas in our lives the govt has no business regulating ...would i call you a moron or an asshole? not at all .. also if my posts get you so worked up im sorry i have such an effect on your controlling your temper ..better off to just ignore them if you cant debate without name calling ..you loose credibilty ..again SHOW ME where i was out of line in this post and maybe ill see your point of view

and this is what pushes your buttons lol... you allyways criticize fox for being right wing .. or am i mistaken and you believe fox is objective like the times?? lol

and didnt you say the post was printing fear mongering garbage?? sorry but yeah people get scared when half of queens can be blown to bits ..thank god for the patriot act that stopped these nuts

and you consider that statement enough for you to reduce yourself to name calling ..whatever :wallbang

[Defekted]

If the kid tried to read the NY Times he would get dizzy after the first paragraph....

unless it has a headline like "TICKING TIMEBOMB - LATIN MUSLIMS WITH GREEN EYES ARE UNDISCOVERED THREAT - MAY POISON PLATINO SUPPLY" all bolded in 25 FONT .. followed by a massive picture of white kids eating platinos..... and a small paragraph of nonsense.....

All his information comes from his mickey mouse newspaper.

[Defekted]

Gonna post AN AMAZING segment of Keith Olbermann's Countdown last night... called "the nexis of poltics and terror"

how since 9/11, anytime this administration faced bad news (whether Iraq, or domestic) terror warnings and arrests have followed within days ..... coincidence? I think not.

[John Kennedy]

Did you see the sunday Times? I thought it was pretty prevelant. A large part of the front page, 2nd headline in the electronic edition (e-mail).

By the way, where did this "news clip" come from?

[John Kennedy]

btw in the Monday WSJ it was a tiny blurb on the front page under "World News" which directed you to page 5 of the first section, where there was a general article about the overall state of homeland terror threats... barely discussing the jfk plot. Shame on those lefty hippie WSJers.

[Defekted]

at least fox will tell you how many insurgents/al qaeda members we kill unlike cnn or msnbc who just rattle off our soldiers death toll

and fox employs geraldo, alan colmes, mara whatever her last name is, juan williams and chris wallace... thats alot of liberals to be working for a so called right wing news org



hahahahahah ....

man i needed that cuz, my morning was kind of rough, had to be in a 8am meeting, which is always brutal.

just rattle off soldiers death toll? actually what they do is have the names, towns, and sometimes pictures of the soldiers stay on the screen as they fade to commercial, usually with some type of somber violin in the background. Kind of puts the whole thing in prespective, especially for rightwingers who have hardons for this war but who dont go and fight it or send their kids to fight it....at the very least they can see the face that just died looking right at them, with that uniform and brave eyes. Its unfortunate you consider it just rattling off death tolls... obviously you are more concerned with insurgents getting killed then with our troops getting killed, very very unfortunate.

I dont think its credible i switch from Fox to msnbc where i watch scarborough country.. correct me if im wrong but he is a real conservative..
Alan combs is a putz who whenever he makes a point they go straight to commercial b/c they dont want him to outshine hannity.
I watch FOx and never hear about the number of insurgents we kill? please get a source for this statement
Is it wrong to show the number of troops killed? should we just sweep it under the rug? especially when all we hear from this administration is we are winning
I guess the truth has a liberal slant to it

Fair enough.....as long as you're checking out other sources for news - but do you really think it is necessary to make the snide comments you do when you DONT agree with something? I mean - wouldnt it be better to just say 'I dont agree with this', present your reasoning why - in a non-demeaning way, without going off on us tree hugging hippie liberals?

I like reading various sources of news too - but I dont then turn around and say 'look at what these right wing fear mongering fucktards are writing about - what a bunch of mierda!!!'

I dont know, man, you just seem like very close-minded......I shudder to think of what you are like in real life.....

[Defekted]

Nothing better than sitting down, drinking a big cup of Joe and reading my Times, the wealth on knowledge, the in depth analysis on the international and national stage, the op-eds ....

how can anyone want to get their news from that mickey mouse tabloid the NY Post???? oh i know, its that finding the page to finish an article... i just hate it when im really into a story and have to go from A1 to A8... so fucking annoying!!

lets face it, NYPost are for the guys who didnt do too well on the reading sections of the regional tests throughout elementary and high school. Does have a great sports section though.

Billo Rilley says the NYTimes is a liberal mouth piece and Jimmy boy follows like sheep. You may learn something bro, if your hurting financially ill give you a buck.

how can you agree or disagree with the news? there is shit that happened, and shit that didn't happen. What is there to agree with?

And the WSJ has reported on all kinds of news for ages now. They even have a weekend edition now that has travel and leisure features... I just hope Murdoch doesn't get his grimy paws on one of the last sensible newspapers on earth.
