[See NewsBusters for more.] With the bleak news on Monday that Ramadi had fallen to the terrorist group ISIS, the three networks minimized an examination of Barack Obama's responsibility. Despite hyping the problems 2016 Republicans face in connection to Iraq, ABC, NBC and CBS were more reserved on the issue of ISIS. On CBS This Morning, Holly Williams allowed, "What is clear is that despite nine months of U.S. lead air strikes in Iraq, ISIS is still capable of seizing territory." But the two hour-long program didn't focus on Obama. While talking to GOP Senator Lindsey Graham, Norah O'Donnell deemed Iraq a "problem" for Republicans. She lectured, "We heard Secretary Gates say to Bob Schieffer yesterday he's not really impressed by some of the foreign policy answers by some of the Republicans."
