Another week, another transfer of a province’s security to Iraqi troops. But even though reporters attend the ceremony, you have to read deep into their pieces to find mention of it, says embed Michael Yon.
"The transfer of authority did not even make the cut for news for most US publications and networks. Of those which included the story in their news reports, most mentioned it only as part of an overall report about the day’s activities in Iraq. Many of those included it in reports which were headlined or sandwiched with bad news about the violence in other parts of Iraq."
No wonder Americans are so disenchanted with the campaign. It’s all blood all the time. Pathetic.
