Either these reporters are total idiots (probably) or very smart and exclude facts that do not support their version (maybe)
Their mantra of "official Navy records" became so boring if one really understood the system and how these records were created by Kerry himself. Maybe these reporters were so stupid of the military system that they had/have NO CLUE how reports are created.
This story about the Purple Hearts was a new spin that I had not heard before. They ignored the requirement of a wound under enemy fire and total dismissed the self-inflicted part. But, they did read or repeat the part about the simple fact that the severity of a wound is not a requirement.
I do see a total lack of knowledge from the majority of these reports regarding anything military. |
I absolutely agree. With your background, you should send Lang an email that includes your points. Remember Lang's argument is that the media did not check the facts. You can simply use his own argument to lay bare his own misstatement or incomplete statement of the facts. If we are polite and provide "facts", the dissonance will keep building to the point at which, hopefully, they will actually do the required legwork and talk to people who actually know the facts. Otherwise we are just talking among ourselves. |
