Who's Sorry Now?
As Americans we may want to be leery of a media culture that is simply NOT reporting some of the most important news of the day. Fox has been running old O'Riley stuff from 1998 - what's THAT all about?
Ok, it IS a holiday, sort of, and those who DID NOT SERVE are all pious about honoring those who did....whatever.
Here's news that is important, tragic, and appaling:
Deadly Attack On CBS News Crew
Two members of a CBS News team, veteran cameraman Paul Douglas, 48, and soundman James Brolan, 42, were killed and correspondent Kimberly Dozier, 39, was seriously injured Monday when the U.S. Army unit in which they were embedded was attacked.
A U.S. soldier was also killed in the attack, and six others were wounded.
Afgans riot after US accident
Chanting "Death to America," rioters stoned the U.S. convoy involved in the accident then headed to the center of town, ransacking offices of international aid groups and searching for foreigners in a display of rising resentment over civilian deaths in the war against insurgents.
Bush 'planted fake news stories on American TV'
Federal authorities are actively investigating dozens of American television stations for broadcasting items produced by the Bush administration and major corporations, and passing them off as normal news. Some of the fake news segments talked up success in the war in Iraq, or promoted the companies' products.
