Soldiers' got medal, successfull surgery, working social program, teacher loved by students.. Show me one news like these, anywhere... You won't find. In local newspapers. Maybe. No matter where you are, media will go for the scandal, the outrageous, hunting for the negative side. It's not about "whose side they are on". It's about people buying the magazines, and lets face it, "Innocent children slaughtered by bloodthirsty soldiers" sells better than "Soldiers doing good job receive recognition". I think that's all.. No conspiracy. Plain sell the paper rules... And yes, it is sad. Modern media line: Good news are not news. Soldiers’ got medal, successfull surgery, working social program, teacher loved by students..

I think that’s all.. No conspiracy. Plain sell the paper rules…

And yes, it is sad.

The MSM isn't on our side, they don't support the troops or the Administration. They are contemptuous of the outcome of our elections. And, their activities are, by and large, indistinguishable from those of enemy agents in the information war against American interests. And, the truth is not in them. Let’s face facts.
