"Some journalists - indeed, even some entire news organizations - have since acknowledged that their coverage during those prewar months was far too deferential and uncritical. These mea culpas notwithstanding, much of the wall-to-wall media coverage provided additional, ''independent'' validation of the Bush administration''s false statements about Iraq," it said."

Names are required here, even though we know who the worst offenders are, (Fox news, and CNN, I refer especially to you) but if the study named names, we would have the tools to eliminate any of their remaining credibility.

And the warmongering suckers continue to refer to those lies as justification for continuing the illegal occupation of Iraq.

Now send the results of the study to Pelosi, and tell her that if she doesn''t back impeachment efforts, she becomes a co-conspirator in the continuation of illegal hostile military occupation of a sovereign state.
