Iraq

 

Rather Smirks at Bush’s UN Resolution
CBS anchor Dan Rather had a cynical view of the UN Security Council’s backing of the U.S.-British resolution that set guidelines for the Iraqi elections.

CBS Newsman Wallace Denounces Iraq War
CBS News veteran Mike Wallace, at a Smithsonian Institution “National World War II Reunion” shown by C-SPAN, denounced the war in Iraq. “This is not, in my estimation, a good war,” Wallace declared. “I don’t know how we got into a position where our present Commander-in-Chief and the people around him,” the 60 Minutes correspondent lamented, “had the guts to take our kids and send them on what seems to be -- it sure is not a noble enterprise.”

Koppel Lists Those Killed Beyond Iraq
On May 28, the Friday before Memorial Day, Ted Koppel added the servicemen killed in the war on terror outside of Iraq, names he ignored during his Friday, April 30 “The Fallen” edition of Nightline in which he dedicated his entire program to the names and pictures of those killed in Iraq.

Chicago Tribune Highlights Girls Who Had “More Fun” Under Hussein
The Chicago Tribune profiled some victims of Saddam Hussein’s ouster from power: Two teenage girls and an 11-year-old who had a life of privilege. “Imprisoned by Iraq's new freedom,” read the headline. A subhead explained how the girls “say they had more fun and felt safer when Saddam Hussein was in power.” Without any indication of the lives of oppression, deprivation and horror endured by Iraqis not in Saddam Hussein’s favor, Horan managed to cite only one shortcoming of the Hussein years: “Hussein limited access to the Web.” But now the girls can ‘surf the Internet.’”

CBS Misconstrues Report, Claims Bush is Failing in Terror War
Adding an anti-Bush edge to a think tank’s report on al-Qaeda’s strength, a report which avoided inserting such a blatant political tone, Dan Rather on Tuesday night intoned: “The war in Iraq is, as President Bush sees it, part of the overall war on terror, a war the President insists is being won, citing, for example, the capture of many of al-Qaeda’s leaders, though still not the man at the very top, Osama bin Laden. But, as CBS’s Mark Phillips tell us, a new report raises some questions about the President’s claim.” But the Bush administration never claimed that going to war in Iraq would destroy al-Qaeda, just that it would eliminate a source of potential WMD they could use against us. And, as Phillips noted in his story, “the report warns [al-Qaeda] is again planning attacks using, if it can get hold of them, weapons of mass destruction.”

Jennings Spikes Confirmation of Nerve Agent
ABC’s World News Tonight had time for stories on how the turn over of authority in Iraq is not as “simple” as President Bush claims, how Iraqis are skeptical about Bush’s promise to tear down the Abu Ghraib prison, with one man wanting to know if there’s a guarantee that Bush “will not torture prisoners in the new prison?”, how U.S. forces in Najaf had damaged “one of the most important Moslem shrines” and how Israeli bulldozing of a Gaza neighborhood had left an old Palestinian woman searching the rubble for her medicine. But, while the cable networks and CBS and NBC picked up on late afternoon word that a laboratory had confirmed sarin was in a shell in a roadside bomb detonated by U.S. forces on May 15, ABC didn’t utter a syllable about it.

Jennings Implies That Army Military Admits it Bombed Wedding
Following the distribution of a wedding video which supposedly showed celebration hours before the U.S. bombed a site killing 40 Iraqis, U.S. Army Brigadier General Mark Kimmitt showed pictures of weapons, explosives and drugs found at the scene. Kimmitt observed that “the activities that we saw happening on the ground were somewhat inconsistent with a wedding party.” While CBS, CNN and NBC accurately conveyed what was found on scene and what Kimmitt meant by “inconsistent,” ABC’s Peter Jennings didn’t mention the weapons found and implied that Kimmitt admitted that the video undermined the Army’s claims.
(CyberAlert, May 25, 2004)

ABC Claims Wedding Video Was “Public Relations Disaster”
ABC’s Good Morning America presumed the military was wrong and that the U.S. had mistakenly killed 40 Iraqis. It was “a public relations disaster” for Bush and the U.S. co-host Charles Gibson claimed. Reporter Dave Marash admitted there were questions about the authenticity of the wedding tape but still repeated the “public relations disaster” phrase in his follow-on story.

Jennings Cites Bush’s Low Approval, Not That He’s Even with Kerry
ABC’s Peter Jennings highlighted how a new ABC News/Washington Post poll found that most of the public thinks America is bogged down in Iraq, that the administration lacks a clear plan for Iraq and how, “for the first time, fewer than half of the Americans we talked to, 47 percent, approve of Mr. Bush's overall job as President.” But Jennings didn’t mention how John Kerry is still unable to capitalize on Bush’s troubles as Bush is still trusted more on honesty, strong leadership and consistency and to handle Iraq and terrorism. Plus, with Ralph Nader in the race Bush and Kerry are tied at 46 percent each.

CBS Spikes Poll Findings Showing Most Think Prison Abuse Overcovered
The CBS Evening News relayed seven findings in a new CBS News poll, including how John Kerry has an eight-point lead over President Bush and how most think a President can change the price of gas. But though four different stories cited numbers from the poll, CBS ignored how ten times more of those surveyed feel the prisoner abuse story has been over-covered as under-covered.

CNN and NBC Show Iraqis Maimed by Hussein
In the midst of another night of network focus on the prisoner abuse matter, NBC and CNN found some time to show how Saddam Hussein’s abuses were far more hideous. Both the NBC Nightly News and CNN’s NewsNight ran stories on some Iraqi men, whose right hands were cut off by Hussein, who were brought to Houston in order to get fitted for prosthetic hands.

Networks Use Supposed Wedding Massacre to Depict Iraqi Morass
The supposed U.S. killing of 40 Iraqis at a “wedding party” in Western Iraq led the ABC, CBS and CNN evening newscasts and each portrayed the event as symbolic of why the U.S. is losing support in the region. “CNN’s Aaron Brown opened his NewsNight program by citing a dour newspaper story: “A headline in today's Washington Post says a lot about the state of play in Iraq these days: 'U.S. faces growing fear of failure.’”

Attacks on Bush Making Seymour Hersh Respectable
Crusading liberal journalist Seymour Hersh fueled a scandal that hurt a President the media largely dislike, writing stories about how the responsibility for prisoner abuse in Iraq goes right up to the office of the Secretary of Defense. This effort made Hersh a media darling. This reception was far different that the one the journalists received after writing Camelot, a book that tarnished JFK’s image.

CBS News and New York Times Execs Deny Anti-War Agenda
Jim Murphy, Executive Producer of the CBS Evening News, denied his program reflects any political agenda. The idea that “there’s some agenda here,” in the focus on the prisoner abuse story, is “ridiculous,” he told Howard Kurtz on CNN’s Reliable Sources. New York Times Washington Bureau Chief Philip Taubman insisted: “We don't have an agenda about the Bush administration.”

CBS & NBC Tie Assassination to al-Qaeda Terrorist, But Not ABC 
Now entering its second week: Peter Jennings’ refusal to link Abu Musab al-Zarqawi to al-Qaeda. In the wake of the assassination of Iraqi Governing Council chief Izzadine Saleem, ABC’s World News Tonight ran two stories which named al-Zarqawi, but neither made any mention of al-Qaeda.

Rooney Wants “Smart Board” of Professors to Promote Liberal Ideas
CBS’s Andy Rooney recommended the creation of a “new government agency called The Smart Board” which “would be an advisory group comprising a body of 100 college professors, all with PhDs” who would advise the Congress and President on the best policies to follow. But as 60 Minutes viewers soon learned, Rooney really just wants another way to undermine conservative views since the two examples he cited matched exactly what liberals want.

U.S. Reporter Wants More Iraqis to Die So that Bush Will Lose
Toby Harnden of London’s Daily Telegraph recounted in the latest edition of The Spectator magazine: “I was accosted by an American magazine journalist of serious accomplishment and impeccable liberal credentials.” Harnden related how she told him that “not only had she 'known’ the Iraq war would fail but she considered it essential that it did so because this would ensure that the 'evil’ George W. Bush would no longer be running her country. Her editors back on the East Coast were giggling, she said, over what a disaster Iraq had turned out to be.” Asked whether thousands more dead Iraqis would be a good thing, the American reporter nodded and mumbled something about Bush needing to go.”

Jennings Refuses to Link al-Zarqawi to al-Qaeda or bin Laden
ABC’s Peter Jennings continued to refuse to link Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the terrorist in Iraq believed to have decapitated Nick Berg, to al-Qaeda or Osama bin Laden. Other network anchors weren’t so reluctant. CBS’s Dan Rather noted how Berg’s life “intersected” with the “notorious al-Qaeda figure.” Tom Brokaw asserted on NBC that “al-Zarqawi is considered to be a close ally of Osama bin Laden.”

Lauer Fails to Press Ted Kennedy About His Outlandish Claims 
NBC’s Today interviewed Senator Ted Kennedy on May 13 about the Iraq war, but Matt Lauer failed to press him to defend his Tuesday comments on the Senate floor about Abu Ghraib prison: “We now learn that Saddam's torture chambers reopened under new management -- U.S. management." On CNN’s American Morning, however, Soledad O’Brien did ask Kennedy about that allegation, suggesting some thought he was “way over the line on that.” He replied: “That’s a part of the Republican attack machine, and I reject it.”

ABC’s Sawyer Picks Up on England’s Claim Tactics Saved Lives 
Update. On the May 13 Good Morning America, ABC’s Diane Sawyer raised how Private Lynndie England claimed that prisoner treatment tactics led to information which saved lives. The May 13 CyberAlert pointed out how, buried in a clip aired on CBS Evening News from England, one of the soldiers charged with mistreating Iraqi prisoners (she’s the one in the photo smiling and pointing at a man’s genitals), was her claim that their tactics “got the information, and some of it was reliable, some of it was future attacks on coalition forces.” But, the CyberAlert noted, others had not picked up on her claim.

Jennings Spikes Beheading Culprit al-Zarqawi’s Ties to al-Qaeda 
Is Peter Jennings spiking any al-Qaeda/bin Laden tie to the beheading of Nick Berg? On May 11, ABC’s World News Tonight ran a story about the terrorist for whom the videotape of the murder claims responsibility, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, but ABC neglected to make any mention of his role in al-Qaeda. In focusing on al-Zarqawi, ABC was just catching up with CBS and NBC. But earlier those two networks had explicitly linked him to al-Qaeda and/or bin Laden. Jennings, however, described al-Zarqawi simply as “one of the most wanted men in Iraq -- at least by the United States.”

CBS Skips Own Poll on Prison Photo Over-Coverage, NBC Takes Up 
After one night of leading with the beheading of Nick Berg, on Wednesday night the broadcast network evening newscasts returned to leading with multiple stories on the prisoner abuse topic, starting with Senators and Congressmen viewing more pictures and videos.

CNN’s Brown Worries Media Haven’t Been Negative Enough on Iraq 
CNN’s Aaron Brown worried on May 11 that the media have been too favorable to the Bush administration and too inclined toward good news in covering the war in Iraq. Without posing an equivalent question from the right about over-coverage of prisoner-abuse or how Iraq war coverage has been too negative, he asked former CBS and NBC correspondent Marvin Kalb: “Do you think, I mean this is a criticism that we get a lot particularly from the Left, that we in the media generally have not been aggressive enough in reporting on bad news and that we have been too willing to accept the administration's message on good news?”

NBC Gave 10 Times More Coverage to Prison Images than Saddam’s Mass Graves
NBC News aired 58 stories on the Abu Ghraib prison abuse scandal from April 29 through May 11 but only five stories in all of 2003 and 2004 on Saddam Hussein’s murder of 300,000 people and their burial in mass graves.

ABC & CNN Ignore Beheading’s Ties to al Qaeda
The May 11 ABC World News Tonight discounted any connection to al-Qaeda by those who beheaded American Nick Berg in Iraq. Anchor Peter Jennings cited “several questions about why it was done and by whom” before Brian Ross noted how “the men on the tape claim they are part of an al-Qaeda-connected cell,” but that “U.S. officials tell ABC News tonight they cannot confirm that.”

Beheading Reaction: ABC Labels Conservatives But Not Liberals
In a piece on domestic reaction to the beheading of American Nick Berg in Iraq, ABC’s Linda Douglass featured a man in Manhattan who blamed the U.S. for it since “our presence in Iraq is just, you know, driving people into the arms of al-Qaeda.” Douglass didn’t label his ideology, but made sure viewers realized the ideology of Sean Hannity and a caller to his radio show: “That was not the view on talk radio where conservatives argued that the beheading puts the abuse of prisoners into context.”

CBS Stunned that Bush Support Not Hurt by Disillusionment with War
To CBS’s astonishment, President Bush’s support has not fallen along with declining support for the war in Iraq. From Allentown, Pennsylvania, Jim Axelrod marveled: “In the last month here in the Lehigh Valley, support for the war has plummeted. Support for the President has not.” Axelrod talked to a wounded Marine back from Iraq who is tired of seeing his colleagues die day after day. Axelrod wondered: “So why don’t you blame the Commander-in-Chief?” The Marine shot back: “I blame the Commander-in-Chief of every Iraqi, not the Commander-in-Chief of the Americans.”

ABC’s Gibson Forces First Lady to Discuss Prison Abuse
First Lady Laura Bush agreed to a live interview on the May 10 Good Morning America so she could promote her announcement of the 2004 grant recipients from her Laura Bush Foundation for America's Libraries, but ABC’s Charles Gibson focused on the prison abuse scandal and her husband’s view of it.

Networks Insist Rumsfeld Must Go, Shields Slams Limbaugh
On the weekend shows, star media figures Eleanor Clift, Nina Totenberg and Al Hunt all made clear that they think that Defense Secretary Rumsfeld should go. Both Hunt and Mark Shields yearned for a McCain presidency. “If John McCain were President, no one questions he would have accepted personal responsibility, and high-level heads would roll,” Hunt insisted. Shields, apparently unable to recognize humor, derisively tagged Rush Limbaugh an “armchair commando” and quoted how Limbaugh “dismissively compares the sadism to a college fraternity hazing at Yale.”

MSNBC’s Olbermann Longs for U.S. to Leave Iraq
MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann suggested on his May 7 program that the prisoner abuse scandal “may be the proverbial tipping point, either way, for what has been up until now a largely ineffective anti-war movement.” Olbermann opened his Friday night program by touting how on Nightline the night before retired Lieutenant General William Odom called “for a phased-out U.S. withdrawal from Iraq” as did “the journalist Raghida Dergham” and “today a columnist with the trade publication, Editor & Publisher, asked, 'When will the first major newspaper editorial call for a pullout?'”

Fox Airs “What We’ve Accomplished in Iraq” Segment
Host Chris Wallace provided a “What We’ve Accomplished in Iraq” segment on Fox News Sunday. The list included listed ending the brutal regime of Saddam Hussein, the systematic torture and murder of hundreds of thousands of Iraqis, ending the theft of billions of dollars from the Iraqi people and ending the threat that weapons of mass destruction will be developed and used. Wallace also listed “quality of life” issues that the U.S. media don’t bother with such as the renovation of 2,500 schools have been renovated and health care progress. A third area was “human rights” with “a fully functioning legal and judicial system” and freedom of speech. Plus, Iraqis now have satellite dishes, are flocking to Internet cafes, are enthralled with having private conversations on cell phones and the U.S. has done a lot to improve electricity service and clean up sewage.

Networks Stress That Bush Didn’t Apologize
In interviews with two Arab-language TV networks, President Bush did not apologize for the treatment of some Iraqi prisoners and it drove network reporters into a tizzy. “But while the President denounced the abuse of Iraqi prisoners,” ABC’s Terry Moran noted, “he pointedly did not apologize for it.” CBS’s Bill Plante complained that President Bush deplored the abuses, but stopped short of an outright apology.”

CBS’s Dan Rather and ABC’s Peter Jennings did their best on Wednesday night to advance Senator Ted Kennedy’s notion that Iraq is “Bush’s Vietnam,” though neither mentioned the Senator as they raised the comparison to the earlier quagmire. Rather treated the allegation of the enemy as newsworthy as he announced at the top of the CBS Evening News: “In Najaf, the militant Shiite cleric Al-Sadr echoed the refrain Iraq could become quote, 'another Vietnam’ for America.”
