[QUOTE]Originally posted by TSN: [QB] You really think they're going to get [i]higher[/i] ratings by airing an hour of still portraits with someone reading off names? I suspect there will be very few people (of those who [i]can[/i] watch it) who will watch it at all, much less sit through the whole thing. This country has suffered thousands of military casualties over the past year. Many more Iraqi civilians have been killed or wounded in the same time. All this has been done in the name of, first, disarming Saddam Hussein of weapons he didn't have and, second, giving the Iraqis freedom that they still haven't gotten. Our government has done nothing but lie to us before, during, and after the war, and the vast majority of the media have done nothing but back them up. Now one news show attempts to make people aware of even a fraction of the death our government has wantonly spread among even its own people, so perhaps at least those hundreds of soldiers might not have died in vain, and all you can do is accuse them of looking out for their own profits? It's all the media outlets that have done nothing but support Bushco who help extend this war indefinitely. [i]Their[/i] the ones who should be accused of using the war to their own advantage. After all, the longer Bush keeps killing people, the longer they can keep doing stories about it. "Nightline" is making at least some attempt here to show the public just how bad things really are�to broadcast the [i]truth[/i], which is supposed to be the news media's only purpose for [i]existing[/i]�and [i]they're[/i] the ones accused of profiteering. If that's the attitude of our country today, maybe we [i]deserve[/i] a president like Bush. [/QB][/QUOTE]
