The national media: slow to report on things that have been handled correctly. CMC

The CMC is much too kind to our weasel info hackers considering that they are on a quest to defeat the USA by writing stories that will incur casualties reduce moral and encourage the Thugs. They are not slow to report on the good our Marines produce in the field; their plans require they omit all success stories completely as they last thing they want is to encourage the support the troops have from the home front. They are the Fifth Column! Consider, for example, this headline :
Report: U.S. Conducting Secret Missions Inside Iran
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -
The United States has been conducting secret reconnaissance missions inside Iran to help identify potential nuclear, chemical and missile targets, The New Yorker magazine reported Sunday.
The article, by award-winning reporter Seymour Hersh, said the secret missions have been going on at least since last summer with the goal of identifying target information for three dozen or more suspected sites.



Gen. Michael W. Hagee, the Marine Corps Commandant, said he still is an ardent proponent of embedding journalists with combat troops.
“How many American people know what we do, know what you and I do for a living, what you and I do for this country?” Hagee asked cadets and officer candidates Monday night at the Coast Guard Academy. “We should not be afraid to show the American people what we do.”
Hagee recalled a reporter hyperventilating as he reported from a battlefield with bullets whizzing overhead. The reporter experienced the kind of personal peril that soldiers take for granted, and told the American people about it.
The embedded reporter process “has informed the American public. ... I think it's absolutely the right thing to do,” Hagee said. “They may not always agree with how we see the battlefield, but that's OK.
“Unfortunately,” Hagee added, “I don't think (the coverage) is very balanced.”
The national media, he said, has been slow to report on things that have been handled correctly.
