I just found out about this and i'm astonished at the severe lack of credibility of the news media in general. Un-FReepin'-Believable!!!

"They are being taken in."
I'd change that to, "They are willing accomplices." ;)

I'm sure you're both right.........the bashers and hostile ones will just move on and bash on another subject.
It takes character to apologize, and I haven't noticed much of that showing forth in the usual suspects.....

If the U.S. Military Command issued a Press Release, why is the name of the issuing officer blocked out? Is there an official U.S. military website where the Press Release is posted?

You are right. They know how to make the news, literally. We are losing the PR war.

over a NO story, story. Allow me to apologize for rising to AP bullsh!t bait. It does not change my opinion that something different must be done, besides "stay the course". MNF press has been misleading as well, admittedly not near to the degree of the rest.

I will apologize for believing an AP report, as soon as you apologize for believing a report signed
"Very respectfully,
LT XXXXXX
XXXX X XXXXXXXX
Lieutenant, U.S. Navy
MNC-I Joint Operations Center
Public Affairs Officer"
Public Affairs Officers are by their very title, public people. It does NOT compromise Operational Security to quote a PAO by name. So which is worse? Believe a blatant lie that is published by AP, or believe Lt. XXXXXX? I contend that we should thoroughly vet any source. Alas, neither the press nor MNC-I nor MNF-I (the military public reporting groups) send their stories to FR for proper review and vetting prior to going to print. Live with it.

Huhhh???
Were you one of the 'get out of Iraq now Bush is a moron' emotional reactors to this story, Son? Were you one of the ones mocking those who questioned the story's veracity?
If so, apologize. If not, no need to comment.
(IIRC, you swallowed this story without question, didn't you? Made Bush look bad, and so you believed it, didn't you?)
