It is? I really ought to watch the news more closely 
.
Sadly, the 'smoke and mirrors' of news-as-entertainment means that I was not aware of this until you posted.
It does not surprise me other than the fact that those that were involved were so blase that they assumed that even public knowledge would not matter.
In what might seem a non-sequiter, that 'media blinding through showing' is why the next manufactured war, assuming that Iran has too much sense to be taken-in, with either Korea or China as target will 'work' too.

yeah, i guess i assumed the guardian was well-read by all-- it's not a small story by any means and there's a particular nasty connection between Bush's Buddy's wife directly sending money to two of the 9/11 terrorists.
this is the type of story that would bring down the mighty by a rightfully outraged citizenry -- but most likely will go down as biz as usual.
but check out kos's go at it.
