The thread concludes (after I had a close look) that actually yesterday the dam broke on the #GazaUnderAttack story on US Cable TV yesterday, most shows covered it, many mentioning the bombing of the @APNews / @AlJazeera building....

Also I omitted to mention @MSNBC's @chucktodd (@MeetThePress*) who actually led his segment with a piece on #GazaUnderAttack and CNN's @camanpour who has, as is her way, been on the case all the way through. So as far as #USSundayPolutics is concerned there was a full court.
Some of the components deserve additional commentary. The ever affable @johndickerson's interview with Netanyahu was I think almost accidentally brilliant, as it provided Bibi with an opportunity to hang himself in his own delusion, it was very Trump.
On Global Public Square, where @FareedZakaria is pretty consistent about covering the critically important subjects du Jour, the two person panel was superb, directly addressing the nature of the crisis and providing beautiful context.
Brian Williams @The11thHour also deserves special mention as he broke the ice (step one before the dam) on Friday Night bringing in an informed panellist as what I presume was a late addition to the last #WorkingWeek show in the @MSNBC lineup.
As does @FoxNewsSunday's Chris Wallace, the last sane man standing in that wilderness, who also, like Chuck Todd led off with the subject and covered it well with both a report and a panel discussion.
