"It is a better world that these children are not reading textbooks that are dreadfully politicized."

That he can say this without any sense of irony really says a great deal about Mr. Brown's point of view.

Whenever I see him on TV I think of a deer caught in the headlights of a speeding semi.

From the piece:

Brown said he thinks the coverage of the war itself has been done "extraordinarily well," but others such as the Fox News network bring a conservative slant to the news.

[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[

As always with these people...the funny thing...or the sad thing is...they don't even realize their bias. Either that, or they know EXACTLY what they are doing. I hope it's the former...in Brown's personal case. But with CNN as a whole..I know it's the latter.

"I'm in the news-gathering business. We have 150 correspondents across the world. Fox is in the talk-about-the-news business. They have a conservative New York slant," he said.

LOL!! What's a "conservative New York slant"? For a reporter not to know that CNN is called the mouth-piece for the DNC is...ummm, pretty bad reporting. LOL!!

"There's not one person who could say whether I support the war or not. My job is to see that the underlying issues are brought to public discussion."

[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[

Well....Aaron I'm one person. I don't think you really support the war. Kind of odd, in my mind that you don't think anyone could say that. Not very thoughtful, or intuitive.

"It is a better world that these children are not reading textbooks that are dreadfully politicized."

I guess it's been awhile since Aaron has opened an American text book. Now there's a story, Aaron..!!!

He said the mood of the public has not been supportive of covering the grim facts of the Iraqi war.

No, it's the continual harping on the "grim facts". War is hell, as they say. What I'm not "supportive" of ( I don't watch CNN anyway..) is how CNN doesn't "report" the good things...that are happening in Iraq because of our being there.

FWIW-
