Zeev's Turnips Talk Politics (ZTTP)

[ergo sum]

Everyday I see pictures of young Iraqi children and an anonymous soldier, usually with a rifle. I see prisoners of war usually prostrate on the ground with their arms tied behind their back. Another common scene is explosion in the distance of one of our munitions. Only very rarely do I see a dead body, and I have not seen a single American body.
I don't watch TV so I don't know what footage is on the tube. These images are from newspapers and are mainly the ones on the front page.
Is this journalism? Is this a fair view of what it means to be at war?
I almost never read reports of the number of people killed military or civilian. I do read stories about Americans killed, heart breaking stories.
I have read some stories about how the war is being fought strategically, often questioning the plan and whether or not it will work. Is it on target etc. I read of Columbia Professors who people say are terrible persons, and Journalists who go on Iraqi TV and get rightfully fired.

I don't know if I have all the issues in there but my question to you is where is the Liberal press you are talking about? I don't see it at all. Aren't the horrible French sympathizers and appeasers part of the Liberal press? Where are the pro French pieces?

This is how far I think you are to the right that you can not even imagine that journalists are making these decisions everyday about what to report and not a single newspaper in the USA is even coming close to reporting what would be an anti American point of view. Do you want a FREE press or do you just want lap dogs?
