Extensive MSM Coverage
Stories about how the military casualties are lower than they have been for a year have been covered to death. The way the MSM has covered this from every angle leads me to believe not much is going on the world.
US military losses in Iraq for September stood at 70 on Sunday, the lowest monthly figure since July last year, according to an AFP tally based on Pentagon figures.
The figure also marks the fourth consecutive drop in the monthly death toll following a high of 121 in May. June saw 93 deaths, July 82 and August 79. The monthly toll in July 2006 was 53.
Oh wait thats right, its not heavily covered because no one wants to read about America succeeding. In America there is no demographic for pro America stories. Especially news sources that cater to the left. In other words all of them.

I don’t think I really get this post. I read this good news on at least 2 websites you would call msm.

For the record i used the expression ‘covered to death’. In my mind the question if this month was the record for deaths would the coverage be identical or more extensive. Don’t answer! We already know the MSM would be all over highest death totals much more extensively than record lows.
That being said, I’m happy that some of the MSM (CNN never made it a top headline) decided to give some decent coverage. Maybe they only hate partially hate America.
