Priorities of the Press

Big news was made earlier this week when ABC anchor Bob Woodruff was critically injured, along with his camara man Doug Vogt in Iraq. The military convoy in which they were travelling apparently cut thru a rough part of town and hit an IED.



I wish no harm on anyone, especially the good guys in a war, but come-on already with the media coverage! This incident has happened on a daily basis for more than two years now, as the 4,000+ US Marines and soldiers injured can attest. Maybe if the daily events were thrown at us they way Woodruff's fiasco has, those in charge might have a little more idea of what's really going on. While I'm glad Woodruff and Vogt received medical treatment only forty minutes after the brain-injuring blast, I can only hope the troops are as lucky. I seriously doubt it.




President Dumb-yah will no doubt peacock his arrogance a few short hours from now in his State of the Union address, and will in turn hopefully nauseate a few more people that don't quite see that it's his war our boys are fighting.
