I keep forgetting that I'm posting with whipper snappers.

The Networks, are the 4 primarily free, thusly FCC accountable entities of ABC, CBS, NBC, and FOX.

None of them have given anything aside from normal coverage past the morning shows on the day of Zarqawi's death.

I realize it isn't on the scale of 9/11, but on that date the nets covered non-stop for days, rightly so.

With this, the networks, FOX included treated this story like it was an aggravation to them.

I have to take all of your guys word for what MSNBC, CNN, and the other cable news stations are doing, because I only scan by them and move on to the one that interests me the most, which has been Foxnews, on this subject.

I doubt CNN has covered it to the extent Foxnews has, but I'll relent to those who stayed glued to CNN.

I just think the nets, which are all some folks get, especially in poor areas, and the boondocks where cable is not available.

I think they dropped the ball on this.

Our troops deserve a little hurrah on this.
