Stephen Colbert on Wednesday tore into Fox News’ hypocrisy over the arrest of Ahmed Abu Khattala, a suspect in the 2012 Benghazi attack.
“Yes, we must bring those responsible for Benghazi to justice. Sadly, Hillary Clinton remains at large,” he said on “The Colbert Report” after playing clips of Fox News hosts calling for the Obama administration to arrest a suspect.
Colbert then made fun of Fox News for focusing on how long it took for the government to capture Khattala.
“It’s going to take more than what we demanded to satisfy us,” he said.
“Why did it take so long?” Colbert continued. “President Bush did not wait 642 days to catch bin Laden. If he couldn’t catch him right away, he wasn’t going to catch him at all. That’s called having some pride!”
Colbert concluded by telling the audience he would have “more on this story as soon as I can figure out why it is bad.”

If only the major news outlets were half as good as the Colbert show of dissecting news events, Americans wouldn’t be as misinformed as they are.
You have to be a town flunky to believe Fox. Never mind Benghazi and the news it is a gold mine for advertisers
Seriously, guys.
Look at all the effort being made by trolls all over the Net, to convince us “Hillary can’t win,” “Not-liberal-enough-vote-third-party,” etc.
Look at their pants-soiling level of fear. Then tell me Hillary isn’t our best hope of keeping Jeb Bush (or worse) out of the White House in 2016.
Colbert is pretty good at dissecting Fox News, too.
