One of the most important operations during a war is the spreading of dis-information, specifically propaganda. The US and Western News operations claim to want to report only the facts, so they try to discredit anything positive put out by the US government of the Military. At the same time they report as fact the most outrageous propaganda of the enemy. AP reports "massacres" allegedly carried out by marines in Haditha even though the source was clearly part of the enemy. But, the MSM and Congressman Murtha bought into the story because it made the US look bad. More recently it has been found that AP sources are either imposters or liars. AP publishes the stories without adequate fact checking. The owner of the NYT admits he is opposed to the US, and will not aid the US Military. During WWII the press helped the US; now, they aid the enemy. My question is, why do they do this? Is it just related to internal politics, as the Democrats see the issue. Or, is it just hatred of President Bush? In either case, the MSM is actively aiding the enemy to the detriment of the US Military by publishing the enemy propaganda while trying to discredit the US effort.
