they claim there is a liberal media bias

the 'they' being goddess only knows who. MOST of the news coming out of iraq is rather candy coated even if they do list deaths and injuries.

our vice king says the situation is NOT terrible.

i say all these people are full of shite.

the situation IS terrible. the people in iraq are suffering. our troops our suffering. their families and friends at home are suffering.

our country is spending BILLIONS of dollars on evil yet our citizens are not being educated properly nor receiving proper health care.

yet, we allow ALL of this to continue to happen.

wake up and allow the truth into your hearts


CBS Refuses to Broadcast Iraq Footage

By Rory O'Connor and David Olson, MediaChannel.org. Posted January 26, 2007.

Sometimes it's hard to swim in the mainstream.
There has been much heated debate over the past few years over media coverage of the Iraq War. The Bush administration has repeatedly attacked the 'liberal bias' of the mainstream news industry, claiming that it doesn't report enough of the "good news" from Iraq and focuses instead on the sensational and violent.
Those critical of the war and the occupation say just the opposite; that the mainstream news media has ignored much of the "bad news" coming out of Iraq, leaving Americans with an impression of the war based more on a desire to follow the official White House narrative than facts on the ground. MediaChannel has long been in the latter camp, sponsoring (for example) last year's "Show Us the War" project, which published video pieces showing an Iraq overrun with violence and chaos -- and an administration that seemed more intent on faith and "spin" than reality. We at MediaChannel believe that an informed citizenry is necessary to keep our democracy viable, and we have been strong advocates of the call for all news outlets -- mainstream or independent -- to produce and distribute accurate stories on the situation in Iraq.
Which brings us to Lara Logan.
One would assume that Ms. Logan, as CBS chief foreign correspondent, has a fair amount of influence as to what stories she gets to cover, and that most of her important stories, once produced and delivered, will be broadcast.............
