Given how much control the US government has over the media, who stands to benefit from making this known. How does this change the playing field? Does it make liberals complacent? But I doubt one article would pacify the Nation ... unless if the Media Infrastructure harped on it and exploited it for all its worth. I don't watch TV that much so I'll never know.

"President Bush, annoyed by what he considers the "filter" of news reporting, will seek to go around the press on Monday through television outlets that do not routinely cover the White House."

and

"The offensive comes as polls show Americans increasingly worried by Iraq policy. "

I really wish Bush hadn't brought the next election via Diebold. Sigh.
