Military families must be enraged when night after night, Kobe Bryant and Scott Peterson lead the coverage on the "network America trusts for fair and balanced news,
He has a point. I'm sitting at home tonight with a watchful eye on our driveway for the foreboding strange car to pull up with bad news and the top of the hour news covered all of the tabloid garbage. News of the downed helipcopter didn't even warrent a mention. The Iraqi deaths were mentioned followed by Jackson, Jackson, Jackson and Medicare. Our forgotten war was forgotten again.

You could say it's pro-war to not cover it so much. Out of sight, out of mind. We don't want hours of loops of bodybag and coffin footage, and that's what would get on TV.
