White House Slams US Media Coverage of Iraq

White House criticizes Iraq showdown coverage

By Bill Sammon
THE WASHINGTON TIMES

The White House and Pentagon yesterday criticized news coverage of the Iraq showdown and other military matters in a sign of increasing acrimony between the press and administration

"You're covering the process as if it was a baseball game," White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer told reporters.

He accused journalists of missing the big picture on the Iraq story by distorting daily developments. Although criticism mounts against Saddam Hussein, Mr. Fleischer said, the press emphasizes expressions of doubt from wavering allies such as France and Russia.

If one reads the foreign press, it is clear that the US media favors the administration.

Lies, Damned Lies, Statistics, and Ari Fleischer.
