War as Sport

Karen’s and Tom’s response to Chris’ post on the way the media (particularly Fox) is covering the war like a football game reminds me of a conversation I had with a pro-war friend shortly after the shooting ended in the fist Gulf War. My friend was a CNN junkie during the war, but when I asked him what he thought about the subsequent Kurdish uprising he said he had stopped following events in Iraq since the NCAA basketball tournament had began. Wonder when Fox News will get Terry Bradshaw to do color commentary on Fallujah?
