While I agree the media can and should report on such things they need to remain as objective as possible. This has rarely been the case in recent years. At a minimum they need to treat all news fiarly. FOr example, we had weeks of front page stories on Abu Graib while at the same time people that had been abducted were being beheaded and that received far less coverage. While I do not condone the actions at Abu Graib they were villified far more than necessary and the real torture done by the enemy was almost whitewashed. Another example is the Cheney hunting accident. While the story was, and should have been, covered it was blown way out of proportion. The press was ticked that they weren't told soon enough while the necessary medical help was provided immediatley. hmm How long did Kennedy wait to even get help after drowning that poor woman in the river?

The American people are waking up to this bias and are talking with their money. That's why readership and circulation is down for liberal newspapers and people are changing the channel and looking for new sources of information.
