COVERING THEIR BACKSIDE: WH contacted YouTube About Anti-Muslim Video DURING Benghazi Attack

ABC’s Jonathan Karl is reporting that according to a State Department email, one of the first responses from the White House to the Benghazi attack in real time was to contact YouTube to discuss the “ramifications” of allowing the posting of an anti-Islamic video, according to Rep.
