What I mean is that when one american civilian is killed in Iraq it is f****n bid deal, but about month or two ago two finnish civilians also was killed in Iraq by bunch of muslim militants but I didnt saw that you guys did give a **** about it, so why should I give a **** if one american civilian is killed?

Where are the journalists now? Not with the foot patrols in Najaf! Not in a supply truck along Roadsidebomb alley! Not where a school is being rebuilt!
They sit on their wide behinds in a nice & secure hotel and wait for the dayly SITREPS or rush to a blast location for gory pixs...
we also need embedded journalists to test the air to see if the all clear signal can be given

i think that i have finally realized that the media is retarded. from being a college student in class to a US soldier in theatre, the change of perscpective is really there.

i've seen animals used for NBC detection as far as Gulf War 1 but I was not aware yet of the use of any D.D.J (Danger Detection Journalists) in modern conflict!
Does it work?

And if you ever run out of journalists, you could always use lawyers.

Post; Well...


you guys have to admit the mistreatment of those prisoners were not right. I mean Americans government proud to display that it is a civilized force in this mdern age. It always preach democracy, human rights and personal freedom. And the concept can get regular citizen all bloated how good the system is.

well, at times, it needs someone to jolt us out of the trance. Media SOMETIMES can do that. And the media supposely not take sides and just tell the news. It works, SOMETIMES.
