US MEDIA REPORTS FAIRLY ON SUCCESS, FAILURE IN IRAQ
[SOURCE: Army Times, AUTHOR: Gian P. Gentile]
[Commentary] "From my foxhole-view as a tactical battalion commander in western Baghdad in 2006, the American press, although not perfect, has reported the reality of the Iraq war. Contrary to what most believe in the American military, as well as some conservative columnists and a few politicians, the American press does give a reasonably full, fair and balanced picture of what is happening in Iraq."
