I was watching Fox News this morning and caught the blonde guy talking about Iraq, something about :. . . squeezing off a mortar round at an airplane."
Fair and balanced maybe, but dumba$$ about the military like 99.9 percent of the rest of the media types.

"Fair and Balanced..." is a marketing slogan for FOX News, not a statement of their actual news policy.

All need remember that the vast majority of these "News Casters" are just that - no real life experience to speak of - they just have a good video presentation and can read a prompter - their opinions are usually as educated as Hollywierds Jane Fonda's or the Politicos Howard Dean's, Bill/Hillery Clinton's or so many of the others that deem it necessary to instruct those that have walked through hell - that it really wasn't hell we were in - "but if it was" - we should not have been there enforcing our will on the poor unfortunates caught in a bad situation.
