It doesn't take long to find errors of fact and distortions in The Virginian Pilot. Just read any of the "filler" between the ads that this bird cage liner calls "news stories."

For example, this front page story House vote would let U.S. prosecute security contractors runs over a picture of what appears to be some kind of an armed gang, shirts hanging out, sandals and sneakers on their feet, and an assortment of ancient weapons most of which appear to be of Soviet make.

This may be a picture of the armed gang guarding the NY Times building in Baghdad which has terrorized its neighbors. You would have to ask the French photo agency who supplied the picture exactly who these people are, but they are certainly not American military contractors. See for yourself

The Virginian Pilot is a boil on the posterior of the country. Norfolk is the home of the US Navy's biggest base yet it is also the home of the rabidly anti-military Pilot and the bunch of loons known as PETA.

Sigh!

this is also the town that until the late 80’s had signs up that read ... “Dogs and Sailors keep off the grass” and “No sailors allowed” ... Real friendly folks there.... yea.... NOT!!! The worst part is with out the navy base there that city would collapse.

I like the place. It’s the Looney Liberals here that are the problem. At least once a month you can find a group of militant - mostly elderly - anti war demonstrators at a busy intersection leading to the “Downtown Tunnel” with signs saying “War Is Terrorism.” I believe they call themselves some variety of Catholic.
