re: You did.

Your quote:

You do the military a disservice by constantly telling them the media is out to get them.

Don't act surprised when they start spouting off about how they dont get no respect from the media.


The implication of this phrasing is, assuming "you" is the "right wing talking heads and bloviasphere" you mention in your clarification, is that troops think the media is against them because someone is telling them this.

My response is that they have plenty of access to mainstream media sources, around the world, and they can see for themselves what the hell is going on, and make their own judgments. And they have.

Or are we going to get into "nailing Jello to a tree" mode again?
