Rumsfeld: "I can't manage what people say", (i.e., commentators and retired military you see posed as experts on the news). But that if people hear it enough, they will begin to believe it.

Rumsfeld goes on to lay out (to the really dense) that war is indeed difficult.

Now talking about WW Two, where people only saw about 15 minutes of film from weeks ago. Now the instant news media makes it seem like weeks.

"On 1PM Friday the air campaign began.... It even seems like weeks to me"

Basically telling the press to get real.
