Good Morning America in Fallujah
Our good friend Sgt DeBoard from RCT-6 sends this mildly surprising note and video.
Gents,
Attached is a clip of ABC out with RCT-6. They're almost breathless in reporting the truth: how smoothly things are going in Fallujah. Other media outlets who shall be left unnamed have had the same opportunity to report this, walking through the market district of the city just like ABC did, and didn't report this adequately.
Things went so well, in fact, the reporter said, jokingly, he was afraid things were staged because they went so well. Nothing staged about it. Fallujah is a real city now. They're getting their footing financially
at this point, of course, but things are looking up. Even things like street lights in the city, newly installed, are making the point. I hope you find some opportunity to run this. I think a lot of your readership who no longer participate in the "MSM" can find some solace in the fact that when they actually come out to where the rubber meets the road, the unvarnished truth comes out.
