Traitors.
Excellent oped by MR.
OK, we keep talking about it, but what are we going to do about it. Boycotting doesn't bother them, writing letters doesn't bother them, I think we're eventually going to have to take on this enemy. I'm not sure how, but I do know that we're going to have to do something about it and FAST.
"Whose side is the media on? Not ours."
It would be nice if Iraq arrested these pro terrorists, pretending to be journalists, and questioned them to see who pays them to put out their lies.
Are the media on our side?
No.
Truly, the USMC is not in need of media allies to market a war. The fact that the US Gov't allowed embedded journalists, is an unprecedented exercise of freedom. I think all we are asking for is complete, fair and accurate coverage. This seems to be something TV just cannot practice. If it leads it bleeds, always. Don't diffuse the issue with truth. Let the picture speak. no matter how strongly it distorts the facts. Keep the controversy alive to keep the interest (ratings)up.They have loyalty to nothing, not even the truth. They are totally in the entertainment business. Carnage and controversy is good for the ratings. The reason for such biased and unfair coverage is because they can hide behind the first amendment and get away with it. TV news is on the same level as the National Enquirer. Free speech does not mandate responsibility. They do what they can get away with.
If this kind of "news reporting" is not treason, or at least sedition, will someone explain exactly what it is? Consider: "the armless, legless body of a blonde woman, her throat slashed and her entrails cut out." This sounds as if we were dealing with a bunch of serial killers, so savage and heinous is it. Anyone for praising SK's?
Yet, the mainstream newsmedia in the USA mostly ignores this horror and focuses on the "brutality" of American soldiers. In WWII, the authorities would have shut these reporters down and thrown them in prison for this kind of gross bias! Think about it. They are consorting with enemies and their twisted, psychotic version of things!
These "reporters" are betraying their own country! They obviously care absolutely nothing for ordinary Americans. They only care about their own incrowd of RDDB's. They are willing to let us get out throats cut rather than tell the simple truth! Their twisted way of thinking will get us all killed. I've never seen anything like it.
These "news people" are abusing their Constitutional rights, yelling "fire" in a crowd, panicking the people, spreading false information, undermining the war effort, and confusing the American people about the most important war that this country has ever been plunged into.
Can this war be won with these Copperheads stabbing us in the back? I really question our ability to do this. The "embedded" reporters should be taken away from the battlefields so the soldiers can do their thankless jobs.
Think what's at stake here. This is not a game. The fate of civilization is at stake. Does anybody know or care what civilization is? Take a look at some photos of a landscape after a nuclear explosion. Make a list of all the thinks which are gone. That would be a long list, indeed. People, art, architecture, libraries, museums; literacy, poetry, painting, and sculpture. But one last thing, don't forget to count yourself and your loved ones and the "embedded reporters."
They can all go straight to hell!!
Spot on!
excellent article.

The Media, has been against AMERICA since the mid sixties during the Viet Nam war. They did not give us honest coverage during Viet Nam and have workded to sabotage this nation ever since.
There will never again be a "combat" correspondent like Ernie Pyle, nor will there ever be a correspondent that the "troops" will ever fully trust.
