Good stuff, thanks!

One has to wonder on the purpose and intentions of media "coverage" in Iraq. To me, it appears as though the media's, and the Left's, sole purpose and reason for being is to support terrorist/terrorism/fascism/socialism (redundant, no?) and oppose any attempts to bring freedom and true peace to the world.

Am I wrong here?

A great picture. Thank God for those brave men and women who risk their lives to defend us and help children on the other side of the world. There is nothing more noble.

"Unfortunately, the media has not been reporting all the good and positive things that our soldiers are doing daily,
or about how much they personally believe in the cause. "

Get the REAL facts from the military PING
Find out what CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, and FOX refuse to tell you.
After all the TV and Cable network news rooms are "busy" with Micahel Jackson, Scott Peterson and Kobe Bryant.

pabianice : Thank You

Ragtime Cowgirl : Thanks for the ping.

Let there be no mistake, we know why we are here. We are here fighting terrorism in its purest form, we are preventing another 9-11, we are ensuring that the terrorists fight us on the ground of our choosing, not on our home soil. So that our own families can live free from fear.

God Bless You... Kevin & your wife along with all your other brothers & sisters who are over there with you!

Bump and bookmark.

All we can do is keep telling people that it's nowhere near as bad as the media makes it out to be.

"There were good-faith disagreements in your country and mine over the course and timing of military action in Iraq. Whatever has come before, we now have only two options: to keep our word, or to break our word. The failure of democracy in Iraq would throw its people back into misery and turn that country over to terrorists who wish to destroy us. Yet democracy will succeed in Iraq, because our will is firm, our word is good, and the Iraqi people will not surrender their freedom."

probably the ONLY way you're going to find out the good that we soldiers are doing here on a daily basis is to go to the military websites where military journalists like myself post our stories. Here are a few:


www.army.mil/srtv

www.dod.mil

www.defendamerica.mil

www.1ad.army.mil

www.campbell.army.mil

http://www.riley.army.mil/OurPost/CurrentNews.asp (This is who I write and broadcast for)

Also, actually a tip of the Kevlar needs to go to Dr. Bob Arnot at MSNBC and to The Fox News guys that are here with us. They are really making an effort to go out with the units and get the good stories and not just focus on the "body count".

THANK GOD FOR FR! (yes, I am shouting!) I am convinced that Viet Nam was lost by the media. It will not happen in Iraq and FR and the internet are a big reason why not!

We have the BEST military in the world, bar none. Hoo-yah!

More New York Times lies revealed

here's the book on the subject:
Journalistic Fraud: How The New York Times Distorts the News
and Why It Can No Longer Be Trusted by Bob Kohn

I got to hear the author interviewed by Hank Hannegraff (sp?) on his "Bible Answerman"
radio show.

While it may seem weird that a Christian apologist (Hannegraff) would be
discussing this book, he said he wanted his audience to learn how to spot journalistic
fraud anywhere, even in the Christian press.

BTW, one caller to the show was the father of a soldier who'd just returned from Iraq;
his son has been stunned at the deceptive and negative reportage stateside.
According to the caller, something like only 1-2% of the thousands of daily
US Military patrols in Iraq results in any sort of violent exchange.
