CNN and The "Unvarnished Truth"
I recently heard about CNN showing footage of a terrorist sniper in Iraq shooting and killing either a soldier. The only thing the footage didn't show was the unfortunate soldier's face. Because of this, a California Republican congressman urged the Defense Department to remove all remaining embedded CNN reporters. Why keep them with our troops he urged when they are aiding the enemy? CNN's reply was that they had to show the "unvarnished truth." What a total piece of BS!!!!! This is the same network that wouldn't show the "unvarnished truth" about Saddam Hussein when he was in power in Iraq because they KNEW they'd get their big fat butts kicked out of Iraq in a heartbeat. Also, if CNN is so concerned about showing the "unvarnished truth" about Iraq. Why doesn't CNN show all the good we're doing over there????? Wouldn't that be showing the "unvarnished truth" about the situation there. If they're willing to show our guys getting killed, why don't they show pictures of dead terrorists? Are they AFRAID that would upset their Muslim audience? If that is the case, why aren't they afraid that the sniper pictures would upset our people? I personally don't believe CNN is showing the "unvarnished truth" about Iraq. I've heard too many stories of troops over there who say what is happening is totally different what the so called "main stream" media is showing. I personally hope this disgusting attempt to distort what is happening in Iraq backfires on CNN and costs them more viewers. I know I stopped watching them a while back because I'd become so disgusted with them. I would urge you to do the same.
