Media Bias in Military Reporting

Thanks to Ian of Political Teen for putting up the video of today's Connected Coast to Coast segment in which Paul Rieckhoff of Operation Truth and I debate media bias in military reporting. We discussed media coverage in the war zone, Newsweek, the Pat Tillman reporting and a little more. Phil Bronstein guest hosted for Ron Reagan. I agreed with everything he said and much of what Paul said. I don't think Monica was convinced, but she argues really well for her side.

    If I have my timeline right, Moran was on the Hugh Hewitt show and admitted that a substantial portion of the reporters he knows are hostile to the military, and he did that before your show. Of course, they may say this does not affect reporting, but I guess we can be the judge of that.

    Is the media hostile to the military (i.e. soldiers) or the military machine?

    I missed the show. Did anybody quote Terry Moran?

    I don't think anyone mentioned Terry Moran.
