Benghazi and "The Innocence of Muslims".... [View all]

Does it strike anyone else as strange how the "The Innocence of Muslims" aspect of the Benghazi story just seems to have disappeared from discussions of the incident?

What was the page 1, main detail of the incident seems to now be on page 14 beneath the fold.

Curious.
