CBS knows most people never learned that back in 2004, a similar report on the US military’s high suicide rate was no less dishonest than the current story. Fortunately this… http://medienkritik.typepad.com/blog/2004/02/shocking_more_a.html …is still available.
In 2004, the full truth, though exposed by a few webloggers, was not given any significant coverage by the major media. Propaganda is 50% lies and 50% censorship. Together, they keep the public under- and dis-informed.
My suspicion: this factually and ethically bankrupt suicide story is being recycled because the real news from Iraq must be countered.
It’s a desperate deceit. I hope the internet throws a fit.
