FINALLY, A VOICE OF REASON FROM THE MSM. LAST NIGHT ON CNN THE SENIOR INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT, BASED IN CAIRO FOR THAT NETWORK DARED TO SPEAK THE TRUTH ABOUT THE ONGOING CHAOS IN EGYPT. WEDEMANN WHO LIVES IN CAIRO AND PROBABLY KNOWS MORE ABOUT THE SITUATION IN EGYPT THAN ANY OTHER NEWS CORRESPONDENT WHO HAS REPORTED ON THE RECENT PROTEST IN THAT BELEAGERED NATION PUT THE RECORD STRAIGHT. WEDEMANN SAID THE DEMONSTRATES IN THE STREET DID NOT REFLECT THE MAJORITY VIEW IN THAT COUNTRY. WE ALL KNOW THE OLD SAYING THAT "ONE MAN WHO SHOUTS OUT IS HEARD ABOVE THE THOUSANDS WHO REMAIN SILENT" BEN MORE OR LESS SAID THIS. I'M QUITE SURE HIS BOSSES AT CNN DID NOT APPRECIATE THIS FROM THEIR SENIOR CORRESPONDENT AND I SUSPECT HIS TIME IN EGYPT IS SHORT-LIVED. IF HIS SUPERIORS DON'T GIVE HIM THE BOOT, I WOULD THINK THE MOBS IN THE STREETS OF CAIRO, ONCE THEY GET WIND OF HIS COMMENTS WILL DRIVE HIM FROM HIS HOME IN CAIRO. BEN WEDEMANN IS NO CONSERVATIVE AND HIS COMMENTS ON CNN ARE PROBABLY MORE ACCURATE THAN ANY OTHER I HAVE HEARD, INCLUDING THOSE ON FOX NEWS. THANKS FOR THE BREATH OF FRESH AIR BEN, MY HAT IS OFF TO YOU! TRUTH AT ANY COST IS BETTER THAN A LIE!
