Channel surfing when something on CNN caught my eye (I'm not trying to be rude or sick) CNN actually showed a flag draped coffin being unloaded from an airplane and a group of mourners their.
It really struck me because i remember talking to people about how we didn't see it before. I was just shocked to see that someone in the media actually covered news.
I saw it on CNN yesterday. They decided they would ignore the policy of our government to not show any flag draped coffins and honor the wishes of the families of the fallen heroes.
3. I find it interesting how they show and say things AFTER the
"election" now - some of the MSM are being downright critical at times. It strikes me as if they were scared of the Bushistas/payed by the Bushistas and therefore didn't do anything that might have prevented Bush's "re-election" - and now when he's about to be crowned and all the new laws that have taken away your civil rights are in place they want to prove to the public that everything is ok - they are being "critical". So please continue to read and watch them.
with that story. didn't see it on CNN. but CBS did a pretty long opening segment with lots of film.
and a few details. it was not ONE coffin. it was SIX. the six soldiers all died *together* when their Bradley was blown apart by an roadside bomb. they had all known each other before going to Iraq with the Reserves.
the Reserves angle may be another part of why they decided to ignore the Pentagon and have their public ceremony.
CBS also reported that the Pentagon was NOT happy they did this.
