Richard suggests sources of what really happened

Just read your 9/29 post entitled, "What Really Happened" and appreciated the similarity of your observations about "oceans of cybernews" to a column I just read in the Oct. 6th U.S. News ( www.usnews.com ) titled "The truth, the whole truth" by John Leo, a guy who's been citing Internet sources and hammering p.c. behaviors and doubletalk of faculties and politicians from coast to coast for a few years now. In this case his targets are the ..."police blotter mind-set..." American reporters in Iraq sending their ..."attacks and little else..."stories back to CNN, etc
He states, "The Internet campaign is another example of the new media going around the old media, in this case to counter stories by quagmire-oriented reporters. The campaign...has been driven by Internet bloggers...."
He cites AndrewSullivan.com and Instapundit.com as sources counter to mainstream outlets.
