I've searched all over but I can't see anyone posting this story, apologies if someone has. It was just reported on BBC news that the Whitehouse did not watch the operation on the compound in Pakistan. The live feed went off when they got in the buliding
It's on the telegraph site too :
14.50 Yet another backtrack and change of tune from the White House has emerged over the fact that Obama did NOT watch the raid live and did not see the moment Osama bin Laden was shot dead. In fact the video feed stopped before US special forces stormed bin Laden's hideaway. The White House originally said that President Obama and Hillary Clinton watched the raid as it happened and in effect encouraged the world's media to report that they had watched "the drama unfold".

This story has more holes than 9/11 now, just what are they working up to

I totally accept that the White house spokesmen never said outright 'Yes we watched Osama Shot', thanks for the videos that show that everybody
I think the most important thing going on here (and what has outraged me most) is that someone has blatantly given us the impression they did.
The situation room photo spoke a thousand words and John Brennan's words seemed fully to support that illusion, when he gave his briefing. The White house were happy to let the media get the wrong idea. I'm sure that was their plan.
Does anyone remember the front pages of the news papers on 9/11? There were photos of something like 20 'hijackers' and scary headlines about the attack.
It doesn't matter that 90% of those people were not hijackers, some of them were dead, in Australia at the time, misidentified etc. What matters is the emotional power the image had and that it stuck in peolple's minds.
Most people are affected emotionally by such visual information, they won't check the facts afterwards. In 9/11 the photos helped instill a deep fear of a terrorist threat using the faces to make it 'real'. Earlier this week the situation room photo worked to convince many people that the president watched Bin Laden Killed....and therefore that this charade was real.
My comment there was...show me where official sources ever said they watched it live.
Did anyone in an official statement ever say they watched in real time? Or was that an assumption on some reporter or writers' part?

no it doesnt, the holes are illusions you want them to be real to make obama look bad because he's black/democrat.
It all revolves around him being black and "Liberal", even if he acts like a Conservative.

Please stop fooling yourselves. Most of you are racist, deal with it.
