That is the ONLY way the truth is going to get any traction. Targeting the Republicans who arranged for the edited emails doesn't work because they get too much leeway to be abject liars and assholes. Targeting the ideological 'journalists' who catapult the GOPs lies and propaganda unquestioningly is the way to go.
Republicans Altered Benghazi Emails, CBS News Report Claims
"One day after The White House released 100 pages of Benghazi emails, a report has surfaced alleging that Republicans released a set with altered text.
CBS News reported Thursday that leaked versions sent out by the GOP last Friday had visible differences than Wednesday's official batch. Two correspondences that were singled out in the report came from National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes and State Department Spokeswoman Victoria Nuland."

And that goes twice for Nedra Pickler, even tho she's not at AP anymore.
Jonathan Karl should go to Faux, where he belongs.

So, no, I don't feel any particular sympathy for the AP. Go cry to Ron Fournier, you fake journalists.
