... and ohh denying afterwards that it isn't anything special doesn't really work.

Go and see the movie "Wag the Dog" if you want further details on that. Here is a paraphrased excerpt from that excellent movie. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120885/



(When the Press officier of the US administration tries to create a rumour during a press conference in order to divert attention away from the press's interests in the president's sexual escapades)


Press corp man John levy : "Why is the president detained on his visit to China ?

Press officer Conrad Brean: He has fallen ill and it's has most certainly NOTHING to do with the B-3 bomber.

John Levy: There is no B-3 bomber.

Conrad Brean: I just said that! There is no B-3 bomber. I don't know how these rumors get started!


Needless to say that the press corp then digs into the B-3 angle like a pack of starved wolves to a carcass.
