It will be just like Iraq. They will report the 5% of the news that is negative and ignore the 95% that is positive.
I actually think it would be GOOD if MSM reported on American big cities the way they report on Iraq - it might focus our attention on the rampant crime/gang/drug problems in some cities, and put some real heat on the local politicos (typically democratic, of course) who tend to let it fester to advance their own twisted agendas.
