THEY FEED ON EACH OTHER

Is the Iraq War still going on?

Are Allied Forces succeeding in this or that city or hamlet?

Is political progress being made?

One would think, in a ‘fair and balanced’ media market, that one would give print/air time to some successes of our forces and not just concentrate on huge time slots for any failures, disgraces, etc.

But no, not in the USA.

Check out NPR, MSNBC, NBC, and CNN and decide for yourself.

It used to be that the successes of a nation’s military were proudly discussed in that nation’s media.

Not the media of the USA. Not today.

Wonder which came first: the dissembling/distortions of national media or the ignorance of much of the American public, for we are convinced that the two feed on each other.
