The War Over the War Inside the Pentagon

Here's a great article from Harper's online addressing the inept mainstream media coverage of the Iraq war. No Comment writer, Scott Horton, goes on to point out that conflict over Iraq policy and strategy within the government is a critical issue that has received virtually no media attention. Considering the war has been going on for five years and there seems to be no end in sight, it's appalling that in February 2008 only 3% of news stories were about Iraq compared to 15% in July 2007, according to a separate report by the independent Pew Research Center. I'm glad someone has the nerve to confront the media!
