They did a few reports including very positive stuff about security contractors and executive security escorts in Iraq and other countries. Made me proud :) But mostly it is for political reasons. ..... Shadow Stalker

What merc's in Iraq ?
There are plenty of security guards in Iraq.
But ive never read a single article about any merc's operating in Iraq.
Care to share any sources?
And MSNBC and CNN have done specials about security contractors in Iraq already.

These type of stories wouldn't fulfil a political agenda.
Why do you think the government makes it possible for reporters to shadow the soldiers... they need good stories about the fighting to sway public opinion.

Because the average American wouldn't be interested. Lucky for us Congress has set up a multitude of hearings on military contracts. Look them up on HASC.

This is the dirty secret. Their casualties do not show up in military figures.
