October 22, 2007Michael Yon offers to help the press find Iraq - UPDATEDUPDATE:::: If you have not been hearing good news from Iraq, that’s Bush’s fault…because…because he wants the Democrats to look bad…or…something. I don’t know.:::: END UPDATE Ed Morrissey explains:
Yon’s whole piece is here. More from Ed:
If you have been regularly reading Yon’s reports, you know that he is an independent journalist (and excellent photographer) who has at times been the only source for in-depth coverage of what is going on in Iraq, for better or worse. Iraq has made a dramatic turn-around and that fact is getting little attention from the press. The American public is basically unaware of it, and their unawareness is harmful to all of us and to our soldiers, who deserve recognition for what they’ve accomplished. I am sending a donation his way and hope some of you will, too. Michael Barone says Iraq 2007 is not Iraq 2006 in a must-read piece, and AJ Strata has more on the changes in Iraq. And if you like charts, Bluto has a chart. http://theanchoressonline.com/2007/10/22/michael-yon-offers-to-help-the-press-find-iraq/trackback/ 7 Responses to “Michael Yon offers to help the press find Iraq - UPDATED” |

Big News from Iraq Gets Not So Big Attention…
One might think that an 80-95% decrease in war related deaths in Iraq would be a pretty darn big news. One thinking that would be wrong. Today’s media evidently doesn’t……
