The Information War

Defense Sec. Donald Rumsfeld continues to urge the press to tell the soldiers side of the War on Terror, rather than going with the sensational which gets ratings and aids our enemies:

Rumsfeld reiterated a point he made earlier this week: that journalists need to be more even-handed in their reporting and ensure they tell the whole story of what's happening in Iraq.

Our troops know the truth and is spreading the word:

Troops on the ground know the real story, and share it with their friends and loved ones through e-mails and phone calls, the secretary said. But they continue to wonder why this story isn't finding its way into the media, he said.
