I'm agreeing with Dave until he makes this silly statement.  The day of
the SF 'staged event' which was not covered on National air, had an
interview with an in-flight gas-jockey flying around Iraq air space
refueling jets for more bombing runs.  This was pure propaganda and was
far more staged than anything in SF since the US govt 'allowed' you to
film what they wanted.

This was and is not 'REAL news' no matter how you stretch it.  This war
started with CNN running all this 'unedited Army footage' and it
continues with US sound bites constantly being delievered during prime
time.  I think a quarter of a million peace marchers are more news than
a 'gas jockey' any day of the week.
