The story of alleged Moore, Oklahoma murderer Alton Nolen, who reportedly beheaded co-worker Colleen Hufford, is fading from the headlines. Barring further developments, I don’t expect it to be a news topic on any of the Big Three networks’ morning or evening news shows tomorrow…
…So we’ll leave to Fox News’s “Kelly File” show, where reporter Trace Gallagher on Friday evening already had a slew of very relevant facts to relay to the viewing public (HT the Right Scoop).
At the 3:43 mark, Kelly observes that “This is the first American beheading on American soil reportedly in the name of jihad.” This makes it news — frightening news. Those who routinely knock Fox News really need to ask themselves why it so often is the only network that does the job every major national outlet should be doing — and especially why that’s the case with this particular story.

The media silence on this woman, her life and her family’s loss is unconscionable…
