Fox - Wash. Post to report that duration of the war "could now extend well into the summer" another report in the same newspaper says that Bush backs Rumsfeld's plan and that they're right on schedule.

Lots of disinformation getting out there these days.

Keep in mind that article I referred to earlier. The WashPost reported just before the war about "Operation Messenger", described as the administration's rapid-response team for the duration of the conflict. There are 100's of staff monitoring media reports all over the world. They instantly correct a story if it's wrong, but they also get out the message they want through the media.
(Remember on A-Day: the bombing started and, within minutes, a few reporters were quoting the Pentagon, "This is Shock and Awe".)

I've been amazed that we haven't heard more reporting about this. Anyway. When an article is getting big "play", I wait for the Pentagon reporters to come on and tell us, "Pentagon sources say......".
