multi, it doesn't appear that this particular reporter was trying to sell the war on terror or the war in Iraq:
Quote:
Ms. Ryan worked on about a dozen reports for seven federal agencies in 2003 and early 2004. Her segments for the Department of Health and Human Services and the Office of National Drug Control Policy were a subject of the accountability office's recent inquiries.

Those two agencies are not related to the Department of Homeland Security nor the Department of Defense.
Quote:
Her Medicare report, for example, was distributed in January 2004, not long before Mr. Bush hit the campaign trail and cited the drug benefit as one of his major accomplishments.

Discussion about this article deserves its own thread, but it doesn't look like it has any bearing on the Fear Factor discussion.
