The Journal finally wrote a front page article recognizing the incredible recent slaughter of U.S. troops in the Iraq war – 329 killed in three months. Maybe, this blog is helping the Journal.
Unfortunately, the story was not above the fold or the lead article; those were reserved for Bill Richardson’s campaign finances and a fluff story about a stupid meth dealer which might have deserved page one of the B-section, but never a lead news story.
Now, if the Journal would run a series of stories about the costs of the war – troops, Iraqis and the incredible $$ costs, the public might better informed.
The Journal obviously thinks it needs fluff leads to survive (note first blog entry below).
One also wonders about the Journal’s continuing emphasis on the amount of money raised by Richardson. Why the “7 Million” headline, similar to other page one stories?
The Journal obviously does not like Richardson. Do they think his $$ raising tars him with the evil of campaign contributions?
