According to CNN:
BellSouth sent a letter to USA Today on Thursday asking it to retract last week's story that BellSouth and two other companies helped the NSA compile a massive database of records on domestic phone calls.So glad USA Today will investigate the denials. Interesting that some big boys might not like the implications of illegality implied in the recent revelation published by the paper.
USA Today has not yet responded to the letter. It said earlier this week it stands by its story, but that it would investigate the denials issued by BellSouth and Verizon.
Perhaps rather than jumping the gun, the msm could take a moment to understand what it is it is writing about before it sells it. Headlines always make an implication that require reading a story to the very end to find that it isn't quite as implied.
