Yes, thats quite true. They did cover this bit up quite nicely.

Luckily, I had a blank tape in the vcr (adding to my collection of off the air recordings of Gulf One) and I tuned in just after they left the abandoned Republican gaurd base and headed into Tikrit. Sadler said several times that they were running the checkpoint. But they dared not repeat that bit on the re-play.

When will this fraud be pulled from airports?

I plan to make a point of complaining to management at every business I observe who keeps this fraud on its TV set- and there are a lot of them, right here in my town.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Tell them to turn the channel or turn it off.

Weekly Standard ^ | 4/15/03 | Hugh Hewitt

boy, the leftist liberal major media is sure ducking this issue. It is getting almost no play...

Confessions of what we conservatives have known for years - that the major media constantly lies, coversup, and spins their stories, contrary to their basic charter.

Flashback: CNN Doing Castro favors, just like Saddam

And a mini-editorial:

When people are skeptical about "biased media," give them these links and ask bluntly

"What else have they chosen to simply not talk about? You cannot know about something you have not been informed about- you won't even know which questions to ask if you are uninformed."
