Quick Thought

Earlier this week, I read an article in the New York Times about the parents of fallen soldiers who don't support the war. Did our media run such stories in WWII? Undoubtedly they could have found grieving parents wondering why their child was killed liberating the French.

I'd like to commission a poll from one of the national agencies.

1. Do you think the American media's coverage of the War in Iraq emboldens our enemies in Iraq, thereby making our task more difficult and putting our soldiers in even more danger?

2. Do you think the American media is intentionally undermining the American war effort in Iraq?

3. Do you think the American media is intentionally trying to undermine this administration with biased Iraq War coverage?

Then I'd love to see how the media covered it. I'd like to hear Peter Jennings, Dan Rather and Tom Brokaw announce "An ABC/CBS/NBC national poll reveals that most Americans think we are responsible for the deaths of numerous American soldiers".
