Question

How many negative news stories have there been about the Iraq war?

Answer 1

Too much.  Way too much.  Only lately has there been a substantial amount of positive news.  Pieces about how the surge has worked.  Articles about successes.  However, there is still a lot of coverage of the violence.  I'm not blind-

I know there's violence. And I know a lot of people have been killed- and I don't think we should have gotten into the war.  Nevertheless, I am very disappointed with the media.  They are very one sided.  They don't cover positive things very much.  They don't cover our successes that often- like schools being open.  They don't do much to cover the good things.  And that's a problem, b/c its too much to one side.  The media is supposed to be objective- but its not at all.

Answer 2

who knows.

remember, the Bush adminstration hired reporters in Iraq to write Positive pieces only, so that skews the results

also

we have the Jessica lynch story that was positive, until it turned out to be  a lie and then turned negative

Answer 3

That's like asking how many grains of sand are at the beach. The media went crazy when Iraq was spiraling out of contorl. We couldn't get away from stories about how we were loosing the war and how bombs were going off, our troops were dying etc. It's funny how you don't hear much about it now that we are kicking butt. You would think that they would be happy to report more good news for once.
