The-already-asked-and-answered-questions Fox is doing AGAIN-

Well there you have it...All questions answered in your opinion. There are a whole lot of other people that don't think all the questions have been answered fully. How are you so sure that there has been No cover up since the documents are just now being released. Why not be open minded and let the investigation proceed without calling everyone you seem to disagree with nasty names. This administration does not have a very good record when it comes to being "Transparent" or Truth Telling.
FOX news is not conducting the investigation. It's a congressional select committee. There has to be some sort of evidence to make that happen. We shall see why....

Has it ever occurred to you that in his own small way, he is part of the cover up?
 
QUESTION: Why Blame The Attacks On A Video?

Bill O'Reilly: Everyone "Knew It Was Not A Spontaneous Demonstration Within Hours." On the May 1 edition of The O'Reilly Factor, Bill O'Reilly asserted that during the attacks "pretty much everyone else directly involved with the Benghazi attack knew it was not a spontaneous demonstrations [sic] within hours." [Fox News, The O'Reilly Factor, 5/1/14]

Brit Hume: "There Was Never Anyone" In The Intelligence Community Who Thought "This Video Has Anything To Do With Triggering The Benghazi Attack." On the May 5 edition of America's Newsroom, Fox analyst Brit Hume claimed that "there was never anyone in the intelligence chain that we know of or anybody in the military command that we know of or anybody on the ground from the state department that we know of who thought these talking points or this video had anything to do with triggering the Benghazi attack." [Fox News, America's Newsroom, 5/5/14]

Bret Baier: "The Administration Knew From The Beginning The Benghazi Terror Attacks Were Not The Result Of Outrage Over A Video." Bret Baier opened the May 1 edition of Special Report by claiming that testimony from a former administration official proved that "the Administration knew from the beginning the Benghazi terror attacks were not the result of outrage over a video." [Fox News, Special Report, 5/1/13]

Chris Wallace: "This Just Adds To The Question Of Why CIA Officials Would Say It Was A Spontaneous Protest In The Talking Points." On the May 1 edition of Happening Now, Fox host and correspondent Chris Wallace claimed that "there are a lot of people the accountability review board did speak to" who "absolutely did not think this was a protest as early as 3:15 in the morning. This just adds to the question of why CIA officials would say it was a spontaneous protest in the talking points." [Fox News, Happening Now, 5/1/13]

ANSWER: Intelligence At The Time Linked Video To Attacks

Senate Select Committee On Intelligence: Intel Reports Linked Inflammatory Video To Benghazi Attack. A Senate Select Committee on Intelligence found that "some intelligence suggests" an inflammatory video linked to violent protests around the region led terror groups to conduct "similar attacks with advanced warning":

It remains unclear if any group or person exercised overall command and control of the attacks or whether extremist group leaders directed their members to participate. Some intelligence suggests the attacks were likely put together in short order, following that day's violent protests in Cairo against an inflammatory video, suggesting that these and other terrorist groups could conduct similar attacks with little advance warning. [Review Of The Terrorist Attacks On U.S. Facilities In Benghazi, Libya, September 11-12, 2012, U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, 1/15/14]

Former CIA Acting Director Believed At The Time Video Might Have Motivated Attack. Former CIA acting director Mike Morrell has testified that the CIA chief of station in Libya believed at the time that the video might have motivated the attackers. [The Daily Beast, 4/2/14]

Cairo Protests Cited By CIA Talking Points Were Sparked By The Anti-Islam Video. The "protests at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo" mentioned in both versions of the CIA talking points were part of a global reaction to the anti-Islam video. A September 14 New York Times article reported "Anti-American rage that began this week over a video insult to Islam spread to nearly 20 countries across the Middle East and beyond on Friday, with violent and sometimes deadly protests." The article went on to note that protesters "had penetrated the perimeters of the American Embassies in the Tunisian and Sudanese capitals, and said that 65 embassies or consulates around the world had issued emergency messages about threats of violence." [The New York Times, 9/14/12]

Slate's Dickerson: Emails Show "White House Believed The Story They Were Pushing." Slate chief political correspondent John Dickerson wrote that while the newly released documents "clearly show that the White House pushed the video story," they also show "proof that the White House believed the story they were pushing," given that the CIA "made spontaneity its first and most durable claim that weekend" by initially blaming the video. [Slate, 4/30/14]
