Chrenkoff has "outed" the media's coverage of Iraq in "Bad News From Iraq"(Hat tip: Power Line). So much for that "Media Underplays Death Toll" article I pointed out as an obvious lie yesterday. From Chrenkoff:
Friday, 21 January (Australian time) is an average day as far as Iraq is concerned. Google news indexes the following negative stories concerning Iraq:
2,642 stories about Condi Rice's confirmation hearings, in the context of grilling she has received over the Administration's Iraq policy
1,992 stories about suicide bombings and other terrorist attacks
887 stories about prisoner abuse by British soldiers
2,345 stories about President Bush's inauguration, in the context of the President failing to mention the word "Iraq" in his speech, or indeed discuss the war
216 stories about hostages currently being held in Iraq
761 stories reporting on activities and public statements of insurgents
357 stories about the anti-war movement and the dropping public support for involvement in Iraq
182 stories about American servicemen killed and wounded in operations
Read the whole thing. Today's "journalists" are either products of the 1970's or educted and trained by products of the 1970's AND IT SHOWS. Yet another disgraceful legacy of the tie-dyed generation.
