Study Proves MSM Stops Iraq Reporting As Surge Works

Oh yeah, big surprise here, huh? The socialists in the MSM have effectively abandoned reporting on the Iraq War because....things are getting better!

A new study out proves it. Let's see Tim Russert and Keith Olbermann and the rest of the socialists explain this. Don't bet on any response.

The Proof:

September 2007 - 178 network stories on Iraq War
October 2007 - 68 network stories on Iraq War

Somewhere in a deep pile of memos on the MSM's desks are some from Democrat Leaders asking the MSM to STOP their positive reporting - wanna bet me on that?

Here's the full story of the study.

Media watchdog says as Iraq successes rise, networks' coverage falls

A conservative media watchdog has conducted a study which documents that as conditions in Iraq have improved over the course of the last three months, coverage of the war on the big three networks has decreased

The Media Research Center (MRC) says for more than three years, the major networks offered extensive coverage of the failures in Iraq and placed a skeptical spin on General David Petraeus' September 10 surge progress report. But Tim Graham, who serves as director of media analysis at the MRC, says the networks' zeal for reporting on Iraq has declined as the violence and casualties have declined in the war-torn country in recent months.
"We had a 178 network stories in September, which fell to 68 in November -- which simply means, yes, things are doing well," says Graham. He says at ABC, NBC, and CBS, apparently "good news is no news."

"I expect the Iraq issue will pretty much drop out of the race, especially in the Democratic side," he predicts. "But I think perhaps the overconfidence the Democrats have had this year will evaporate a little -- and so they will go back to worrying about their real weakness on national security."
