NYT Complaint: Not Enough Photos Of Mutilated American Soldiers
Now the DNC Times is pissed theere are not pics of dead and wounded troops for them to run in their rag
Now that even the AP is fessing up the Us is winning in Iraq, the DNC Times is whining about this
NYT Complaint: Not Enough Photos Of Mutilated American Soldiers
The New York Times is miffed. They aren't happy that there has been a dearth of news photos showing dead American soldiers in the war in Iraq. The Times is lamenting that there have been "4,000 U.S. Combat Deaths, and Just a Handful of Images," so more carnage and death is their druthers. Well, more American dead, anyway. They aren't interested in the dead of the enemy, to be sure.
Using the story of photog Zoriah Miller who had his embed status removed when he publicized photos of dead U.S. Marines after a suicide bombing, the Times reveals their pique over the fact that not enough dead Americans have been peddled to the American public. The Times denounces the military for protecting the troops and their families saying, "after five years and more than 4,000 American combat deaths, searches and interviews turned up fewer than a half-dozen graphic photographs of dead American soldiers."
Complaining for opponents of the war that the lack of casualty photos has created a a situation where the "public portrayal of the war is being sanitized," the Times wonders if the homefront is being badly served because we here are not seeing the "human cost of a war that polls consistently show is unpopular with Americans."

Re: NYT Complaint: Not Enough Photos Of Mutilated American Soldiers
The DNC Times even ran a video on their web site of a US Marins dying. They will stop at nothing to undermine the war - even at the expense of our troops

Ya know that SHIT NEVER would have been allowed back during WWII. Just goes to show how tolerant and PC we've become. We shouldn't be.

What's up RSR? Don't want to see evidence of the death and destruction brought on by your beloved Bushies as continue on their bloody journey to nowhere? I thought you enjoyed torture and death?

Re: NYT Complaint: Not Enough Photos Of Mutilated American Soldiers
I can understand where the spin in this story is coming from. The left hates the military. The left hates war. The left hates the military engaged in the war in Iraq. It was real easy to bash the war when there was fighting and dying. But now that there's less people dying in Iraq than there is here America on a daily basis, they've lost their ammunition to bash the war. They're upset we're winning.

Gabby, I wish libs like you would apply the same level of hate you have for Pres Bush and his supporters to the terrorists who would kill you, your husband, and daughter if you refused to convert
They are the real threat to you and your family

Re: NYT Complaint: Not Enough Photos Of Mutilated American Soldiers
I don't see how the media is undermine the war effort or the troops, it is showing the hazzards that troops face and how real the threat to them is, while rasing questions as to wheather or not they should be their, but i don't see how it is undermining the troops.
However i do not think that CNN should ahve run a video of a marine dying, more out of respect for that marine and his family than anything else.

As for this, it is undermining troops, using them as political tools to endorse republicans when they are people, not tools.
