Rumsfeld and Bush must know that "it's incredibly dangerous and that the media has a very difficult job," said Jerry Burke, executive producer of daytime programming at Fox News Channel. "We have to cover some aspect of the story so we cover what we can cover without getting our anchors and our reporters blown up."

Fox anchor Bill Hemmer is embedded with U.S. forces near Fallujah, "and I'm very concerned about him," Burke said. "He's out sleeping in the desert right now and tomorrow will be doing a very tough job."

8. You don't see Faux reporting

all the happy-face photo-op stories about Iraq either
(while at the same time they are ironically the megaphone
for that exact "blame the media" message from the admin)
BUT you don't see Scarbourough or Hannity reporting on all these supposed "school openings"
Where's Rush or the Blond Skank with all the feel good human interest stories.
Why isn't O'Reilly over in Bagdad interviewing street urchins and falafel vendors ??

Hmmmmmmm???

Are the right wing media exempt ? Come on Fox...
I dare you to be the 24-7 feel good in Iraq station.
I double dare you.

Hahaha

10. I want to see "on my TV screen"...

Bill O'Reilly strolling through the streets, cup of Starbucks coffee in hand, greeting the people of Fallujah, passing out candy to the children.
