OBAMA BLAMES TERRORISM FEAR ON ‘MEDIA SATURATION’

Rather than the fact that extremists are murdering people

In an NPR interview yesterday, the president claimed that the overriding factor contributing to increased fear of terrorism among Americans is ‘media saturation’.

Asking about Obama’s strategy to combat ISIS, NPR host Steve Inskeep asked “What is the public missing?” adding “And I say that simply because, according to polls, you don’t have very much approval for it.”

“Well, I think what’s fair is, post-Paris, you had a saturation of news about the horrible attack there, and ISIL combines viciousness with very savvy media operations,” Obama replied.
