SEAL Who Allegedly Shot bin Laden: Hersh's Article Is 'Garbage'

[MEDIAITE] Rob O’Neill, the former SEAL who claims to have pulled the trigger on Osama bin Laden, said Seymour Hersh’s revisionist account of the bin Laden raid was “garbage.”
Known in the 'team room' by colleagues as a "wall flower, man who kept to himself."
“When I was first sent this article, I thought it was a joke,” O’Neill, who now works as a Fox News contributor, told Shepherd Smith Monday afternoon. “For this guy to have a few guys from Pakistan lie to him and for him to write this story is just ridiculous.”

Writing in the London Review of Books, Hersh, a legendary investigative journalist, alleged that the Obama administration colluded with the Pakistani military, which was in fact keeping bin Laden, and that the raid was largely a post hoc fiction constructed by the White House.

“Well I’m sure that my friends who got shot at and almost took a few bullets to the face through the doors would disagree with them there and be insulted,” O’Neill said. “He’s never really risked his life for anything. All he’s done is have bad sources and print garbage.”

#2 Hersh, a legendary investigative journalist

I don't think he is legendary, or investigative, or a journalist.

#3 Hersh is now feeling the brunt of the pro-Obama press. Poor bastard, its the only time the mainstream press actually takes time to check the truth of things.

#4 its the only time the mainstream press actually takes time to check the truth of things.

The press should be not only a collective propagandist and a collective agitator, but also a collective organizer of the masses.
