Description | Gen. David Petraeus’s sudden resignation as CIA director on Friday quickly ignited widespread speculation among media pundits and journalists about whether the White House had stalled the bombshell announcement until the election was over and some wondered if there was a Libya connection.
“Petraeus resignation. Timing, everything suspicious,” tweeted Rupert Murdoch, the CEO and founder of News Corp. “There has to be more to this story.”
Dana Perino, the former White House spokeswoman for President George W. Bush, noted on Fox News that Petraeus’s announcement came several days before Senate hearings on the attacks on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, at which he was supposed to testify but now no longer will be.
“Five days before the [Benghazi] hearing … it does legitimately raise some eyebrows,” Perino said. |
