I hope the mainstream media starts to "frame the protests" the way Fox News did . . . (but I'm not holding my breath!)

Good, I wouldn't advise you hold your breath! For some reason I paused on "Today" and Katie! and the others were treating this lame "die-in" as one of the most important events in the last year. Also did a bio on the leader of the protest group, some old hag who's been doing this sort of thing for 40 years apparently. Wonder if she knows what an honest paycheck looks like...

Oh, and Katie! can burn for all eternity.

Thanks for that intel. I noticed from the overhead view on Fox (courtesy WABC) that the protest was right outside the Today show studio. I guessed this was their tactic when someone mentioned earlier that the protest would be at Rockefeller Center. I was afraid Today would be treating this as "a very special day on Today" and apparently my fears were not groundless. Disgusting.

I feel the need to correct two things I've heard on Fox about that brave young Sargeant, who's name I'm ashamed to admit, escapes me. First, Malina Bawa (who is very cute btw) said that he said he did not want to return to combat. What he really said was "you don't get shot and think 'gee, I'd like to go do that again", but he also said he felt like he got out easy and wished he was with his buddies. A class act from someone who is going to be on crutches for a long time.

The second thing was when ED asked him about the protesters, he didn't only give the standard line about fighting for their right to be ungrateful, he also said he tries not to think about it too much because he imagines it would irritate him pretty badly if he did. I thought all those soldiers were awesome. Simply outstanding. And guys that I am proud and grateful to have on our side.

You have to remember that Katie Couric is one of the "embedded" journalists.

The military formation she travels with is the Democrat Party. ;-)
