CNN keeps reporting that the surge is working so well

[spanone]

yet they have no reporters on the ground....how do they know?

[Rockholm]

1. Faxes from the WH.

[ixion]

2. Because BushCo tells them so, and they repeat it unquestioningly

as a good propaganda tool should. :sarcasm:

[fasttense]

3. Faith based reporting, it's all the rage, just ask Murdoch. n/t

[Just-plain-Kathy]

4. Their corporate masters tell them so. ....n/t

[Atman]

5. It's the "Official News" today

MSNBC is all over it, too. "It cannot be denied!" says Joe. "The surge has been a tremendous success because George Bush had the conviction to stick with his convictions despite his terrible approval ratings!" (not an actual quote).

It's fucking sick. The catapult is fully loaded today.

6. George and Dick told Wolf...

And he trusts them...

7. Sounds Like A Job For Rick Sanchez...

He's our "man of danger". Let's aend him into Sadr City with no military support or even a Blackwater/Double Canopy escort. It could make for some entertaining television :rofl:

8. all the media are doing it

astonishingly, as if on cue
they really jump to it when the talking points go out.
filthy collaborators... they are an embarrassment to the
very idea of journalism. <SPIT>.

9. What a co-inky-dink! And still no word on Cheney impeachment

I guess that corporate news blackout is a co-inky-dink, too.

Just amazing...

By the way, don't forget that Big BushCo loves you.

10. I'll go along, it's worked great! Let's go home

I think it's work better than CNN does. We've won. It's over. Load the planes and bring the troops home.

13. bend like a reed, grasshopper

great thought there RGB...
yay we won
now lets go home !!!

[spanone]

11. are there any reporters in Iraq? any at all? or does the pentagon write all the stories?

[IsItJustMe]

12. It's called propaganda and they are damn good at it.

[EV_Ares]

14. Its not just CNN; all the media are doing it, look at your morning newspaper,

we all know the entire point on this. The media is obeying the WH on the news reporting, Laura Ingraham on The View doing the same thing, all the media are doing the republicans bidding and what they can to weaken the dems. I don't even know if any or what reporters are in Iraq anymore.
