Shaking Your Head Won't Help

From the Media Research Center:
Quote of the Year
"As violence falls in Iraq, cemetery workers feel the pinch."
- Headline over a McClatchy News Service story by Jay Price and Qasim Zein
All three networks have become more optimistic in their on-ground reporting from the war zone, admitting that the surge in troops and new counterinsurgency tactics have reduced the violence. But as the news from the war front improves, a Media Research Center study finds ABC, CBS and NBC are less likely to tell viewers about it. (Funny, that.)
