I Owe It All To John D'Oh

Here's a transcript of a CNN interview with Lara Logan, a CBS News correspondent in Iraq. Logan says she'd like to do more positive stories, but she's prevented from doing so by ... guess who? ... the U.S. powers-that-be.
Pam Hess, the Pentagon correspondent for UPI, chimed in with this:
And Logan points out exactly why the press needs military cooperation to report the positive stories:

Would you like some cheese with that whine, Quirt? Sheesh! Didn't you know that we are making great progress in Iraq and things are going well and everything is really looking positive, no matter what the liberal media reports? The fact the media used to be able to travel around the country and now can't is not indicative of a worsening situation. It is just indicative of a negative mindset that wants us to lose and jumps for joy at every bad report that comes in. Things are really much better, Quirt. They really are! Say it with me Quirt..... "Things are really much better!" "Things are really much better!" "Things are really much better!" There, now, doesn't that feel good? ----Stop, Quirt! Don't look at the man behind the curtain!!!!!!---- |
