I can tell you for certain. I would see things in downtown Baghdad with my own eyes... then 15 minutes later see it on CNN web or TV - and it wasn't even CLOSE to what just happened. Over and over and over again.

Sometimes I wondered if they were in a completely different country reporting these 'facts'. Really p*sses me off - especially after seeing with my own eyes.

I still talk with others over there - and can tell you that the media is STILL way off base on their reports.

Thanks for your service Jeffrey!

I have no doubt you are right. Someone on FR reported seeing Christiane Amanpour tell a new sstory about the invasion on CNN for US viewers, then a whole different take on it for CNN International. Talk about tailoring your stories.

You and the rest of the troops and contractors will, in large numbers, actually be home for the next couple of elections.
The donks aren't going to be able to disenfranchise as many as they did in 2004, and, of course, we still won that election.

Thank you for your service and keep on reporting what your friends in Iraq are saying and seeing. Let them know that we support them, too. As fewer people of all ages ignore the legacy media and get their information directly off the net,we will win here at home, as well as overseas.

True enough. We knew the only time we ever made news was when one of us was killed, or some knucklehead blew up a pipeline. Never a good word about what the guys were accomplishing. It got old. And the media dudes wonder why we didn't like having them around...?
