Quivers in the arsenal of denial

Barry Rubin writes at PJ Media that the cover-up of the "Why" of the Boston Massacre has begun. Even though

it is much easier to obfuscate distant Benghazi than a total shutdown and horror in the middle of a major American city. Yet the spin-masters are already at work.

He links to a Reuters piece, which he says utilizes the technique of minimizing

Islam as a factor, and turn it into background noise.
I saw Scott Pelley do the same thing on CBS.

Rubin adds that

Chechen grievances will be a good topic for obfuscation.

He adds,

In this pursuit of obfuscation, no idiocy is unthinkable.

And he gives lots of examples.
