I certainly abhor some media coverage, but come on guys! Listen to yourselves!

How niave is it to believe that the "MEDIA" is on your side? Where have you been for the last 40 years. The US media screwed the US military in Vietnam. Why would the UK media support UK forces?

If it's OK for the Media to print lies about the Isreali Army, it's sure as hell OK for them to print lies about the UK Army

The media is so diverse and with so many different agendas that to believe the media itself has a coherent opinion is just nuts.
Maybe the SUN want's to expose SAS men in public?
Maybe the BBC hates the Royal Marines?
Maybe they are just stupid?

The media is COMPLETELY OUT OF ANYONES CONTROL. Complaining about the Media is like complaining about the weather. POINTLESS, and your doing it, merely proves you know nothing about it. It's a condition DEAL with it!
