Why would Al-Qaeda send a terror video directly to ABC news?

I call bullshit, this stuff usually hits Al-Jazeera before we get it.

Did Osama mail it directly to ABC news headquarters himself, with a Kerry/Edwards sticker on the packaging?

5. Seeing that they've never contacted an American news source before
this is more than odd, it doesn't pass the smell test.

7. It's Rove
He's pretty predictable. Just lots more people picking up on him now. "Fool me once . . . " Just ask Dan Rather's producers.

8. ABC (via Drudge) says they got it in Pakistan. Not sent to them.
