Meetings were held. Nothing was done. Instead, four good men died. And still today the white house is sticking to their cover story. We are doing this because it stands to the credibility of our National Security and that of the administration. And this evening a new timeline has emerged from emails sent from the state department to top National Security officials, including the white house situation room, begging for help. Nbcs mike viquera takes us through the chain of events. A series of emails sent from the state department to officials here, sent in realtime as the assault on that compound in benghazi was unfolding, show that the administration was at least aware of claims that terrorist elements were involved in the attack that left ambassador stevens and three other americans dead. It may not have been entirely a result of a spontaneous reaction to that antiislamic video. Ill read for you the last in the series of emails. This is really the crux of it. Update to Ansar Al Sharia
