Has Morning Joe Fallen Prey To The Benghazi Hoax?

i have written before about how MOJO seems to be morphing ito Fox and Friends illegitimate cousins even Mika is not standing up not that she did much anyway shaking your head in faux disgust but not saying anything is just talking loud but saying nothing.

MSNBC's Morning Joe helped to legitimize House Republicans' witch-hunt into the Benghazi attacks by pushing some of Fox News' favorite myths about the tragedy.

House Republicans voted on Friday to establish a select committee on the 2012 Benghazi attacks, a move which follows months -- and years -- of Fox News pushing misinformation and consistently calling for Congress to further investigate Benghazi.
In the wake of the establishment of the select committee, right-wing media led by Fox have revived a litany of  already-asked-and-answered questions on Benghazi, jumping off the White House's release of a September 14, 2012 email from Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes used to prepare Susan Rice for the Sunday talk shows after the attacks (despite the fact that the Rhodes' email was consistent with intelligence reports at the time and relied on CIA talking points). 
Unfortunately, Fox was not alone -- MSNBC's Morning Joe has also legitimized the investigation by pushing debunked Benghazi myths.
On the May 8 edition of Morning Joe, Nicole Wallace, former White House communications director under President George W. Bush, hyped the claim that the administration deceptively linked the attacks to the inflammatory video: 
WALLACE: We now know the CIA -- their analysis did not include any connection between the video. The CIA testified that certainly there were protests in the region, but not that they were tied to the video.
So that's why the White House talking points are so -- I think are being viewed with such a degree of suspicion by Republicans. 

these same bandwagon water carriers were all around 911 and after the truth came out about the deception that led to not 4 but thousands of lives lost not minimizing those 4 but really which move you more 4 or thousands?  they are looking for a smoking gun when once again it's in their front yard why are theyu not investigating their own travesty's 13 time when there is documented proof of complicity and dereliction of duty?

it's a shameful exercise in partisan politics to go so far over board about this and crickets on Bush/Cheyney deception again costing thousands of lives.  and their investigations millions of tax payer money now on their 5th go at the deficit spending like crazed witch hunters.
