Somebody call CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News
And tell them that American troops are dying in vain ("wasted", if you will) in Iraq right now in an unjustified and immoral war.

So far I've seen coverage of a boy scout being found, some guy at Purdue university who got electrocuted to death, and now they're talking about a kid stuck under a rock. (Or something)

On BBC Newsworld, though, they're talking about Iraq.

3. Damn good point.
Over the past four years, if you watched CNN et al., you wouldn't even know we were fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan. A total news blackout. It wasn't an issue in the 2004 and 2006 elections. Not mentioned once.
