The news media have already started their competition for the news blitz of Gulf War II. Most of the info that is and will be available on these networks will consist mostly of highly sanitized output from the military press corps, just like during every other military action of the past 50 years.
And now, it's time for... MIKE RECOMMENDS
Yes, this is the first of my incessantly demanded and highly anticipated recommendations. Instead of switching to the Eleven O'Clock Eyewitness Pseudo News each evening, how about The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. In spite of the overlying scathing humor, you will get more real info on world events in one evening of watching this show that in an entire month of watching your local affiliate's news program. Plus, as my wife will attest, the theme music is kick-ass.
