are we getting anything near the truth out of iraq?

[spanone]

daily i wonder this....ALL NEWS is vetted through the pentagon and there are only a handful of reporters on the ground...i suspect we are getting a rosy scenario since the truth and bu$hco are enemies.

1. We're seeing as much truth out of Iraq

as we are seeing the flag-draped coffins of our brave soldiers who died there. In other words: none.

2. Given the whole premise we are there is a lie,

what specifically are you looking for that might be truthful and from what source?

[Disturbed]

3. Truth is subjective. Facts can be framed to suit the framer.

Objective Truth is a fantasy.

[mmonk]

4. So there are no facts or reality based answers?

[Disturbed]

5. Of course there are facts.

Facts can be manipulated in various ways.

[mmonk]

6. True. Even to fit lies like those told by our government.

I guess it all depends on the question, the framing, and who answers the question and their motivations.
