The best metaphor I've heard about Iraq is that the country is like a child, and the American press is its parent. I'd say the American press is its evil stepmother ala Hansel and Gretal, plotting the child's demise.

Why on earth does the media think we wouldn't be interested in water plants, and new schools, and stories of the sewing plant for the blind, and the soldiers who have adopted an orphanage? They might just do a 30 second bite on these stories, but that leaves out all the best parts. How about showing us more of the men and women who are working so hard to bring this country to it's feet? Why not do stories of Iraqis who are risking their lives to help to rebuild their country.
The problem with the media is they have NO idea what the American people want......they just keep shoveling tripe at us and then wonder why we're tuning them out.

The problem with most news shows is that they are only there to fill the space between advertising breaks
