the wall street journal, on the 17th, for example.

just because you weren't paying attention doesn't mean it didn't happen.

i've been aware that the us offered to evacuate military families for days. because i've been following closely. that they are now arriving is thus not so much a shock to me as it is for others, & thus i have no need to blame my lack of attention on the failure of the msm to report.

btw, kiro-tv owned by Cox Enterprises, very much a part of the msm.
