So was Abu Ghraib. Key word: "was."
Yep. I remember the glee and handwringing and the hundreds of stories about the sandstorm quagmire (3 days into the invasion), the deadly fedayeen, the errant missile where Saddam was supposed to be meeting, the looting, the wily Saddam avoiding capture, the quagmire in Najaf, the tank firing at the reporters, the fake turkey that the Prez was serving to the troops, the infamous wedding "massacre", the atrocities of Fallujah, the Mosque massacre, the resultant "civil war", and of course Abu Ghraib. The MSM has hit the paydirt so many times with scandal and incompetence, its breathtaking.
These stories listed above were covered in tens of thousands of MSM articles. The progress and good news stories, of which there have been hundreds, have been covered in all of about 40 articles in the last 3 years.
