The NASA (non) feeding frenzy
By Byron York,Washington Examiner
From a Nexis search a few moments ago:
Total words about the NASA Muslim outreach program in the New York Times: 0.
Total words about the NASA Muslim outreach program in the Washington Post: 0.
Total words about the NASA Muslim outreach program on NBC Nightly News: 0.
Total words about the NASA Muslim outreach program on ABC World News: 0.
Total words about the NASA Muslim outreach program on CBS Evening News: 0.
If you were to receive your news from any one of these outlets, or even all of them together, and you heard about some sort of controversy involving the Obama administration redefining the space agency’s mission to feature outreach to Muslim countries, your response would be, “Huh?”
Among all the news these distinguished outlets have seen fit to cover in recent days, the NASA story has not made the cut.
Note: It was reported earlier in the week that NASA has been transformed into something akin to "meals on wheels" by the Obama administration. See previous post dated July 6, 2010.

NASA - like meals on wheels
NASA no longer needs another seven astronauts
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has new priorities, America, and they came straight from President Obama.
"When I became the NASA administrator -- or before I became the NASA administrator -- [Obama] charged me with three things," NASA Administrator Charles Bolden told Al Jazeera. "One was he wanted me to help re-inspire children to want to get into science and math, he wanted me to expand our international relationships, and third, and perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science ... and math and engineering."
But whatever you do, don't fly into space! Haha! NASA is just a really bad joke now.
