Start showing the body bags.

IMHO, if the media had the balls it would start showing EVERY body bag coming back from IRAQ. The media would also start showing EVERY soldier coming back with a missing limb. The support for the war would dwindle and they would be forced to cut back the troops quicker than they are now.
Missing white girls can no longer be considered news. Have the balls American news media and start reporting the truth. IF it scares little Johnny then little Johnny shouldn't be watching. Report the truth or get out of the business.

1. They would show them if they were allowed access to Dover Air Base

Rummy the Dummy has blocked access to the home comings of the hero's because it would allow the public to realize the cost of war.
We need to petition Congress to change the rules to allow the media access to the homecomings of all troops, not just the live ones.

4. Exactly, the only home comings they show are the healthy troops

getting hugged as they return home all in one piece with a beating heart.

2. That's what has always been missing. The coffins and body

bags. The pictures of the dead Iraqi civilians.

Poopy bush started the clampdown of the press during war. Correct me if I'm wrong but Gulf Whatever I was the first war America has ever been involved in where the press were kept on a tight leash and no pictures allowed. There was a reason for that, like when they bulldozed thousands of retreating Iraqi military in the sand.

Now it's to hide the war crimes like hitting a city with white phosphorus.

3. There was a piece on the other day about a severely brain damaged

soldier who got blown up in Iraq. It was a well done piece and made it real hard to continue eating dinner. We need a lot more of this in order to wake up the rest of the sheeple.

5. Exactly, every troop that looses a limb needs to have a story done.

If a missing white girl gets hours of news coverage then a soldier with a missing limb should at least get an hour of coverage.
