I to feel that our soldiers dont get enough coverage in the news. I also feel that abc isnt totally wrong with their coverage. At first I was upset about it and then after a few days of reading all of these posts I realized I thank abc for covering it so much. If they just ignored what had happened to two of their own that would be wrong. I think with them covering so much of this story is letting us know what is going on in Iraq. For the families who have a loved one in Iraq or have had one in Iraq we are constantly faced with the worries of war. Those who have no ties to the war dont have any idea what is going on over there because they dont want to. The fact is people dont want to know about something that they think doesnt affect them. I hope that the coverage will reach those who otherwise dont care. After all this message board for our soldiers was started because of what happened. We also have to remember that alot of the soldiers dont want any media attention. I know my brother in law was asked numerous times to tell his story. He didnt want to relive what happened he just wanted to come home and know that him and his family are taken care of. He did eventually go to the news when the Army failed in making sure him and his family were taken care of, as we hear in so many other stories.
