This, dear friends, is how the liberal media writes news stories. Oh they claim that what they write isn’t biased, but NewsBusters quotes a Jewish World Review article on how a liberal worldview forces the reporter to see its betes-noir only in a dark light.
In this case, it’s a story about how the US Army is improving body armor for soldiers and doing it a lightning speed. But when the New York Times gets the story, it can only focus on the negatives.
For the second time since the Iraq war began, the Pentagon is struggling to replace body armor that is failing to protect American troops from the most lethal attacks of insurgents. The ceramic plates in vests worn by most personnel cannot withstand certain munitions the insurgents use. But more than a year after military officials initiated an effort to replace the armor with thicker, more resistant plates, tens of thousands of soldiers are still without the stronger protection because of a string of delays in the Pentagon’s procurement system.”
Isn’t it great that we have blogs and alternative media on the Internet to help us filter out the bias?
