When it comes to reporting on the Iraq War, the Old Media might as well be an appendage of the anti-war wing of the Democratic Party. It is astonishing how little coverage we've seen of the positive trend there over the last few months.

That is the reason I have to keep reminding myself that no news is good news.

I'd be leery of taking what I read on WorldNetDaily with anything more than a grain of salt...

I take all news with a grain of salt. However the deafening silence from mainstream media you must admit is dubious at the least. When the Berlin wall came down it was 24 hour news. Lebenon and the palestinian elections the whole region is on the verge of something great and all we get is bad news. Gives you something to think about.

World Net Daily is a top of the line conservitive site, I highly recommend it for your favorites list and check it daily. They say there opinion and back it up with real facts, shocking I know where not used to facts. I believe the reason we do not hear good news is because the journalist all sit inside the Greenzone and do all there reporting there. Watch a live report, they always have that same dome thing in the backround. How many journalist have you seen interview an Iraqi on the street?
I believe the editors of the media companies are telling everyone to stay put and safe.
