The ironic part is this: If these media types had a brain, they would know that such a personal story that vividly highlights the personal cost to the individuals who have paid the ultimate price in this war would tend towards making the American public much more sensitive to, and thoughtful about, the true costs of war. In other words, in some sense, it would help their anti-war cause.

However, they aren't willing to do it, because it also highlights the awesome patriotism of these heroic individuals, and telling their story runs the risk of opening people’s eyes to the fact that these are volunteers, men and women who made a conscious choice to serve, and who therefore made an extremely personal decision that liberty is worth defending, no matter the personal cost.

In other words, the Democrat Media isn't willing to take the chance that the American people, given full knowledge of what this war is all about, might decide after all that any price is worth paying, for the sake of our posterity, and the safety and security of America.
