One thing you will not see on TV nightly news is a interview with the people who do the fighting. I just read a storie about 2,200 marines who have just arrived in Iraq. They interviewd some who have been there befor & some who have not. They all said they were there to HELP the Iraquies live a better life. Some admitted to being nervious about combat but as one said " bring them on". Another said he was glad to be in Iraq instead of Japan where he has been waiting for orders. He said he was tired of girls , nightlife & getting drunk. He said he wanted to do what he was trained for, COMBAT. Why do we not see the human side of thje troops? all the TV shows is the violance & blood. I would like to see the Whole Picture, wouldnt you?

Offcourse everyone likes to see the whole side of the story, but this can't be done since truth have many sides, and there's no one full truth.
The reason for showing violance and blood for media industry is that "crowds want it", while this is not true.
Now the only way to know the whole picture is by following news resource through the net.

They don't sound very well informed to me. Poor guys. Support the troops; bring them home.
