Fox News cautious with kidnapping story

Cory Bergman August 14th, 2006

As of this writing, a visit to FoxNews.com’s home page reveals nothing about the kidnapping Monday of correspondent Steve Centanni (pictured) and freelance photographer Olaf Wiig. The story was there earlier — and I linked it from Lost Remote — but Fox swapped it out with a story about the kidnapping of an American and three oil workers in Nigeria. Writes TVNewser, “Since 2pm, when [we] started monitoring FNC coverage, the net has aired four brief updates about the kidnapping.” Clearly Fox News is taking a very cautious approach as it works tenaciously behind the scenes to bring Centanni and Wiig home.
