"THE MEDIA'S WAR" dissected by Mr. Sowell

Thomas Sowell comments on the main stream media's reporting of the Iraq war.

  • "The media seem to have come up with a formula that would make any war in history unwinnable and unbearable: They simply emphasize the enemy's victories and our losses."

Reporting only our losses and the insurgents attacks is emphasizing their victories!

  • "Utter ignorance of history enables any war with any casualties to be depicted in the media as an unmitigated disaster."

The question is why do they want us to lose? My opinion: the elitists - particularly on the left, which includes the vast majority of influential media - are still trying to apologize for our countries - and their - success and riches, which they feel was only achieved at the cost of the rest of the world.

What they don't realize is that the "market" works in this method. We can't all be winners!

Read this short but insightful analysis!
