Of course they were, somewhere out in Montana or somewhere, and when they figured out what was happening reported it.

Senior intelligence and Defense officials say there was some coverage by unarmed surveillance drones during part of the Sept. 11 Benghazi attack, but no feed was available for the president. The Special Operations team arrived on the Italian island of Sicily hours after the attack was over.

In fact, CIA security officers responded to the attack on the State Department compound within 25 minutes, U.S. officials said, though it took them 50 minutes to arrive.
It wasn't the embassy, they called it an "annex" but in truth it was a house a mile away. It was claimed to be living quarters but it was really a CIA operation center, they chose away from the embassy because they were trying to keep a low profile. Didn't even have a flag. That was a bad decision but we don't know who made it yet.

It was a terrible thing, but the outright bullshit that FOX, the milblogs, and CNN have been spouting, trying to make political hay out of it, is shameful.
