White House labels bin Laden article 'outright falsehoods'
The White House is dismissing as untrue an article alleging that US President Barack Obama misled the public about how the US killed al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden.
The BBC earlier reported that Pulitzer Prize-winning author Seymour Hersh said the US raid on bin Laden was not a secret and risky US action, but was a joint operation between Washington and Islamabad military intelligence.
The allegation has many in the US - and Pakistan - crying foul and pointing to what they see as insufficient attribution and questionable conclusions throughout Hersh's lengthy piece, the BBC said.
