I don’t begrudge the nice sendoff for Tim Russert, with Dubya making an appearance as noted here, though I think it’s utterly tasteless for him to do so while continuing to avoid the funerals of our service people killed in his Iraq war.
And kudos to CBS correspondent Lara Logan for reminding us about the sacrifice of our military here; this takes a lot of guts on her part. Like you I’m sure, the only “news coverage” I see involving our military in Iraq is “happy talk” fluff about them coming home safely or being honored in some fashion; good news to be sure, but hardly the whole story.
Another network TV journalist showed Logan’s type of courage once earlier, and Digby tells us here what happened as a result (typical for our corporate media).
