The Peculiar Disappearance of the War in Iraq
"CNN will surely remind us today that it is Day 19 of the Israel-Hezbollah war - now branded as Crisis in the Middle East - but you won't catch anyone saying it's Day 1,229 of the war in Iraq. On the Big Three networks' evening newscasts, the time devoted to Iraq has fallen 60 percent between 2003 and this spring, as clocked by the television monitor, the Tyndall Report. The steady falloff in Iraq coverage isn't happenstance. It's a barometer of the scope of the tragedy," writes Frank Rich.
