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.
