this is a golden opportunity for FOX News to jump in and discredit the MSM. show the real progress in Iraq... lift this veil of political hit jobs that's being unleashed on the current administration.

God Bless America. Godspeed President Bush

But critics, including independent journalists who have reported from Iraq, say the trip is a propaganda mission for the U.S. military and the Bush administration and cannot be considered "journalism" by any standards.

The sound you hear is me screaming with laughter at the hypocrisy of these idiots!!!! As if what they do is "journalism"!!!!!

Fox news is certainly disappointing. On one hand they should be commended for the reports from the journalists on the battlefields of the middle east such as from Oliver North, Geraldo Rivera, Steve Harrigan and more. While I have seen little positive from any other media source.

Most media outlets have courted the cliche' that sensationalism sells and it seems that the ad revenues they get prove that. While the MainStream Media has been chasing the almighty dollar they have foolishly wrought tremendous damage in the United States.

Fox News built its American Empire by including a conservative point of view when the other media outlets obviously ignored the conservative point of view. Now that FNC is on top it seems to be succumbing to chasing the almighty dollar like the rest. While FNC has not abandoned its conservative point of view it has clearly shifted its focus from honest reporting to highlighting sensational stories to further increase its ad revenues.

"War is war, and it's dangerous, and the killing is taking place all of the time. At the same time, where there is danger, there is success and there is a mainstream media that is determined to shut out that success."

Way to go Melanie!

"But critics, including independent journalists who have reported from Iraq, say the trip is a propaganda mission for the U.S. military and the Bush administration and cannot be considered "journalism" by any standards."

. . .hardly a 'fair and balanced' observation and a contradiction by it's own complaint. . .do these folks really have eyes that see? And just 'who' are the independent journalists?

Name names, please. (We know who the critics are and where they come from.)

The above would be laughable; if it were not so pathetic. . .
