Afghanistan 'death squad' killings fail to get media, political attention - Washington Times

However....there are NO examples of media bias anywhere today....????....NNNNnnnnnooooooooooooooo, None at all....no evidence there is a left wing bent/slant to the reporting...if you can even call the media today Reporters.....no, no evidence at all!!!! However.....just imagine if you will....this "Death" squad was happening under the Administration of GWB.......Yeah....exactly.

Reports of a U.S. “death squad” in Afghanistan, complete with the publication of gory photographs, have failed to attract the intense political or media attention afforded a previous war scandal — the mistreatment of Iraqi prisoners at Abu Ghraib.

In 2004, CBS News broadcast an array of photographs showing American jail guards abusing Iraqi detainees. The most famous: a forced pyramid of naked, humiliated prisoners. The depictions touched off an avalanche of media coverage. In Congress, liberals called for the resignation of Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld. Democrats launched inquiries and held a string of well-covered hearings."
