"Friedman also noted that journalists bore partial responsibility for the DoD's lack of preparedness because they had never reported how poor and broken down Iraq had become" He is right on this one... all we get is the gi who got killed today... nothing on human resources working on improving schools, hospitals, and how the small towns are functioning.. We don't have journalists in Iraq! Where is the research and reporting on how Iraq is trying to function without Saddam... Didn't he shut off their water, electric, give them contaminated water, high child death rate from poor water.. We should be seeing stories on what is going on to rebuild Iraq. Of course report difficulties but let's get some balanced reporting.
