Another example

This discussion of a specific incident in Iraq shows the progression of how the news covers it. Some sources do a lousy job, others do a better one.

Things to note:

- Certain news outlets seem to be damn eager to put Americans in a negative light.

- Any reference to what "witnesses" say in Iraq should be taken with an entire salt block.

- Time tends to bring out more truth than the initial stories.

- The insurgents know damn well what will play to the liberal media.
