...wishing that I had a nickel for every MSM story that was supposed to be neutral.

I agree, but even a blind pig can find an acorn occasionally if it looks long enough. If not it is always fun to get a laugh out of what the MSM is trying to pass as neutral these days.

You are right, it is billed as one thing and will in the end be a completely shift to focus in a compeltely different direction.
For instance, I can see them editing so of the SEAL interviews and taking their comments completely out of context.
To make it sound as though they are opposed to US action there and Afghanistan. Or make it sound as though the SEALs face a enormous task that will be completely impossible for them to compete. So they just carry out the orders.

I have learned my lesson from CBS, I am wise to their BS.

I still remember the story they did on the Apache Helicopter before the first Gulf War.
They had all these liberal pin-heads on, saying that the Apaches were going to start dropping from the sky like rain when fighting started.
They predicted that all of the rotor blades would fail and that the Apache was Reagan Admin pet project, that was a complete failure.

The report turned out to be DEAD wrong and the Apaches did marvelous. You would think CBS would have done a follow-up on the original story? FAT CHANCE.
We were supposed to forget about it.
