Well, public opinion polls say that more than half Americans oppose the war, right? Maybe this journalist should take a look at the situation here at home, and perhaps take a little credit (or in this case, blame) for his nay saying and cries of "Quagmire! Quagmire!" Or maybe he should consider the notion that most Americans
are aware of the situation in Iraq and take what they hear with a grain of salt. If Mr. Nordland had more respect for his audience he wouldn't be able to suggest that the administation was controling the media, but then he would have to face the fact that his reporting is inconsequential in the great scheme of things. Where's the Pulitzer in that?
