An Open Letter for ABC News

Interesting that a German blogger, Davids Medienkritik- would notice something like this.
clipped from medienkritik.typepad.com
With your recent report on Iraq in which you showed 6 soldiers burning to death in a Bradley vehicle. Once again you have proven that - as a part of the mainstream media - you are incapable of reporting anything but your own biased and defeatist version of the war - devoid of any context or anything beyond death, casualties and bombs.
Needless to say, you will drop coverage of the people of Iraq and their suffering like a hot potato as soon as American troops leave - as that is what you are so obviously out to achieve. It will be a replay of Vietnam and Cambodia - where millions died or fled after 1975 - but the media ignored the plight of those left behind after the political cause - American withdrawal - had been achieved.
while the US media gladly shows US casualties - you almost never see footage of US troops killing insurgents - even though that is a far more common occurrence.
