REAL War Links
Its amazing how using safe, yet suggestive words, the media can get us to believe anything. Like, for example, how for the third time during this war the media has told us that we've found chemical weapons (the smoking gun). Each time they used NEAR certain (though not completely certain) words to convey their certainty. Citing sources as supporting their claim that the US had definitely found something which might be found to be chemical weapons. Of course, no one likes to be wrong, especially the media, so while news of the finding of these potential WMD was sprayed loudly and often, news of their correction usually falls through the cracks. How do you find all these stories that have fallen through the cracks?http://www.bowlingforcolumbine.com/involved/operationoily.php
