It's worse than you think...

Salon's War Room sez Iraq is in worse shape than the media (which is biased, doncha know) is telling us. This according to Newsweek reporter, Rod Norland. See the whole story here. The Whitehouse has done a good job of cowing the media and the military is now reviewing stories of reporters that want to embed to weed out those it thinks have been critical, he says. They ask reporters, what their "slant" is, he says. What are they? Political officers like in the good ol' USSR military? Sigh.
