The War in Afghanistan's REAL Victims
Click to enlarge
In the wake of a U.S. airstrike that killed more than 100 Afghan civilians, the mainstream media wonders: "How will those dead kids harm American PR?"
As FAIR puts it in their analysis of mainstream coverage: "One has to wonder about the values of a press where U.S. taxpayer-funded slaughter of civilians elicits journalists' concern not about victims, but about the war's popularity with the population having record numbers of bombs dropped on them and how that might hamper U.S. strategic goals."
By the way, Obama's top security adviser says he has no plans to halt the airstrikes because “we have to have a full complement of our offensive military power when we need it."
