They’re the official spokepersons for the Dumocraps and enemies of the American people. Even Tecumseh Sherman knew they were enemies of the military he truly wanted them shot on sight.

I know many southerners are horrified by General Sherman. But from my study of history, he was right more often than not. And his policy of making War on the civilian populace supporting the Armies of the south while horrific in and of itself did assist in shortening the War.

And that policy was used again in World War II in the Air Bombing Campaigns in Europe and Japan.

And he was right about the Journolists, even then they had become rabble-rousers and de-facto enemy agents and spies.

Yup. No one was more sickened by the daily bombing raids on Tokyo more than Curtis Lemay, USAF commander after he got the greenlight from McArthur to pummel Tokyo. But he knew he had to do it because he wrote in his autobiography, it was simply they surrender or American boys go in for another invasion and they will die. It was a necessity. Regarding the Iraq War, the media tried their best to ruin American soldiers lives but the American people saw thru their BS.
