Shoddy, lamentable reporting by the US press, except for the occasional full story. Fallujah in ruins, 300 000 people camped out in the countryside, yet not one peep from the press. The heavy hand of the DoD declares what is a reportable story and what is not, I guess.
I apologize for the plug, but I’ve been combing the French, Lebanese and Italian newswires daily for months and publish a daily timeline of events over at my blog.
