Make sure you read Michael Yon's post on how the media get their news in Iraq (via LGF). Remember it the next time you read an article about "what's going on" in Iraq.

I had made a blog comment about Michael Yon's post on the media too. The relationship with media and PAOs is very accurately explained. His explanation of SIGACTS and how they're translated to our disadvantage is also dead on. It was a constant source of frustration. The PAOs were not happy but they knew the news was going out somehow so they might as well try to influence it however they could.
