Phony Soldiers

Why do bloggers hold many in MSM in contempt? Perhaps this local news station’s story holds a clue:

A former U.S. Marine who participated in capturing ousted Iraqi President Saddam Hussein said the public version of his capture was fabricated.

If you dig a little deeper, as do many bloggers, the story has many more facets.

“Later on, a military production team fabricated the film of Saddam’s capture in a hole, which was in fact a deserted well,” Abou Rabeh said.

Abou Rabeh was interviewed in Lebanon.

I think I would have been just a little suspicious.
