Bomb scare seemingly aimed at White House press corp not reported on by reporters

The entire White House press corp did not feel it newsworthy to mention a bomb scare at the White House.

On Friday we had the ridiculous story about the cartoon characters, the mooninites, who turned out to not be bombs. We also didn't hear about two other devices that were not home-made pipe bombs.

It turns out that the other story from Friday that we did not hear about was a bomb scare at the White House, apparently aimed at the Press Corp.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2 (Xinhua) -- The White House Conference Center, the temporary press room near the U.S. presidential residence, was evacuated for half an hour Friday in a bomb scare, CNN reported.

White House spokesman Tony Fratto had begun his briefing on 9:30 a.m. when he was interrupted by Deputy Press Secretary Scott Stanzel, who said everyone must leave the building, according to the report.

A nearby car checked by a bomb-sniffing dog had tested positive, Stanzel said.

Later, Secret Service said nothing suspicious was found in the vehicle, which was driven by a government contractor and had been stopped at the entrance to the White House complex.

During the bomb scare, nearby streets were closed, but the presidential residence of White House itself was not evacuated. xinhuanet.com

As pointed out so eloquently by Culture of Life News, The entire White House press corp did not feel it newsworthy to mention a bomb scare at the White House. The story was hardly covered in the American press.

Friday's top news story? Authorities find that lite-brite images of cartoon characters are not bombs. White House bomb scare is not reported on. Today's top news story? Authorities capture jilted female astronaut in diapers brandishing a BB gun. I wonder what story we didn't hear about today...
