News - we really only get one side - don't we?
we continually hear about insurgents
we never are suppose to hear about who our troops kill or it is bias
no pictures of troops killing or being killed but plenty of insurgents

pictures of people having numbers put on their foreheads

are insugents like the Indians - people protecting their land

I know there are trouble makers - you can go to any city in usa and see that -

When people say anything it is poop pooped?

I am tired of michael jackson, runaway bride, and martha stewart type news and waste of our tax dollars - real criminals like enron, arthur anderson company walk away untouched - no fines

1. I'd be happy to get even one side. What we get is PR
and fiction.

4. And CBS 'news' was yakking about how the insurgency
is 'in its final days', according to the misadministration. Of course, they didn't quote anyone who isn't part of the dark side. Maybe they think if they say it often enough it will come true. More than 800 deaths in the last month is NOT an 'insurgency in its final days'.

5. this whole mess is disgusting
every day seems to be more misinformation and if you go to fox news you have pat buchanan and oreilly just behaving evil - you can almost tell when they do the intimidation act that a person is rw

There was a lady on oprah yesterday with her daughter and cheer leading - this woman could not see how her behavior was over the top - all I could see is that rw cultish behavior

6. I saw that story. American & Iraqi officials were 'HOPEFUL'
that the insurgency is in it's final days. Boy, now that's news. Every story we read or see on tv is filtered through the Pentagon. We see & hear only what they want us too. Period.
