"On June 13, the CBS Evening News devoted a story by David Martin to the Afghanistan death count reaching 2,000, as Martin interviewed a mother of a fallen Marine. CBS was alone. There was no story last week on the Afghanistan death “milestone” on ABC, NBC, the PBS NewsHour – or even on the MSNBC programs found in Nexis, including Rachel “Our Military’s In a Perilous Drift” Maddow. But the networks were all more aggressive when the 2,000 mark arrived in Iraq on October 25, 2005. The Big Three networks devoted 14 morning and evening news stories to the death toll from October 24 through the end of October, and another 24 anchor briefs or mentions. They used the number to spell 'disaster for this White House.'”
Ideologues are so tiresome. No matter what the fact, they will jam into their preconceived mental frameworks. It's 2012. People are tired of hearing about war. Hell, I'm in Afghanistan right now, and even I forget sometimes that we're in a war in Afghanistan.

Yeah, and im sure they dropped the coverage of it and the protests just because people got tired of it all. Im sure it has nothing to do with Obama as President.
Over hear now, you hardly know we still have men/women in war. They hardly ever talk about it. Yet when Bush was in office, that's all you heard about.
If I were over there, Id want coverage of the war back home. Not a hush hush about it. They do this to help Obama, nothing more.

Anti-war just isn't a trendy election year gimmick like it was back in 2008.
Kinda like Guantanamo.
