A fire starts in a house kitchen.
The owner of the house calls 911.
The 911 operator puts the caller on hold and goes on break.
There is no response to the fire and the house burns to the ground.
CBS does a big story on a neighbor's attempt to rescue a kitten from the burning porch only to find out later that, during the fire, the neighbor was vacationing 1000 miles away in Florida.
CBS is mortified.
Does this make any sense? Isn't there a bigger, more important story here?
(News report: CBS News correspondent Lara Logan and producer Max McClellan will take leave of absence from the network in the wake of a flawed “60 Minutes” report on last year’s attack on a U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya.
The suspension was a result of CBS News’internal review of the Oct. 27 segment about Benghazi, which the network found to be lacking in its efforts to substantiate the assertions of a key source, security officer Dylan Davies, a guy with a book to sell. The review was disclosed in an internal memo from CBS News chairman Jeff Fager issued Tuesday.
The “60 Minutes” Benghazi controversy has spiraled during the past month into a major black eye for CBS News.)
