7 U.S. soldiers killed in Afghanistan - Afghanistan- msnbc.com

Sad that CNN and Fox didn't even mention it on their homepages.

Why did the concern about the soldiers suddenly end? I remember during Bush's term the media would always mention which number dead each soldier was. The anti war crowd was resolute in bringing home the troops.

What happened?

That is the dumbest and most insensitive thing I've read in a while. You need to grow up.

That's funny, I see it on Fox, but not CNN.

Should have been headline news. Instead, we got the latest on an unbalanced pop star.

don't hate because you put a murderer into office. this isn't sounding familiar to you?

I personally wish we would being all our troops home, but as long as we have an oil loving, war monger in the white house, that won't happen.

I'm sorry, I must have missed it.

Still it seems like the media hasn't been as attentive to the deaths of soldiers lately as compared to the previous 4 years.

Its sad that they (and the population) are so obsessed with Sarah and Michael that everything else just fades from view.
