ajc.com | Opinion | Falsely bleak reports reduce our chances of success in Iraq

The media reporting from and about Iraq seems to me to unbalanced, particularly on NPR and in the New York Times, at least 'above the fold.' Congressman Marshal may be right. I appreciate him pointing out the potential problem. The media did a reasonably decent job covering the advance to Baghdad and the overthrow of Saddam, but lately all the headlines are about the GIs killed. Certainly the killing should not be ignored, but where's the rest of the story?
