So it's not going to get any worse as long as the US is there?

I simply pointed out the media shows the negative aspects of anything and not so much the positives.

The negatives pretty well outweigh the positives. It would be like if somebody said "Sure Hitler was a ******* who was responsible for the deaths of millions, but he did build the autobahn and start VW."

It's quite easy to report on all the negatives in Iraq,

And if the war was going well it wouldn't be.

but at the same time there are plently of positives and a lot of potential for a brighter future. It's the medias job to dig deeper and cover these stories - i know they won't be as action packed as suicide bombings - which is what everyone likes to hear, but it will do ample amount of good.

Well the media enjoys sensationalizing everything. We've got millions of parents absolutely terrified that their child is going to be molested and kidnapped because the rate for this is at an all time high, when the reality is that this sort of thing is on the decline. I would venture to say that 24 hour news service has killed objective journalism because they need to fill air time.

If i where to say so myself, the media is in a way responsible for some of the violence that is happening in Iraq right now. They portray things so negativly, it's basically encouraging more people to fight with the hope the US will pullout, when left-wing or right-wing, most logical people can draw the conclusions this is certinly not the right way to go.

Really? I'm pretty sure Osama doesn't have CNN in his cave. So is your answer to not report the bombings?
