“It Was Not On Anybody’s Front Page”

By Brian 

This morning, I highlighted this excerpt from a conversation about Operation Swarmer on Reliable Sources:

  Michelle Cottle, The New Republic: Well, sure. And it’s telling that it was a bigger deal on the television journalists in — than it was on print journalists. If you looked at the morning papers…

Howard Kurtz: It was not on anybody’s front page.

Cottle: …there wasn’t anybody’s front page…

An e-mailer notes: “On Friday, March 17, Operation Swarmer was on the front page of: The Washington Post, The Washington Times, The Miami Herald, San Francisco Chronicle, The Seattle Times and Post Intelligencer, USA Today, Chicago Tribune, Los Angeles Times, and Houston Chronicle to name just a few. Big stories and big photos.”
