<P>Don, </P>
<P>FOX news is not that bad in comparison to other US news networks, but it is known as a conservative biased network tabloid station. I agree that they are the best for covering the military aspects of this war, however, this is a political war, not a military war. I think the US has the Iraqis beat in the arsenal war by a long shot, who needs military experts for this obvious observation. The Iraqis only have a chance because Russia, Germany and Turkey will not allow the US to take over Baghdad and Northern Iraq.</P></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>I am on Dish Network, and get all of the news feeds. After skipping
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>around on a regular basis, I tend to go with Fox. They have some
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>really savvy reporters up at the"sharp end", embedded with the
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>actual troops, and they have some retired officers from each service
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>as expert commentators, who know an LAV-25 from a SAW, and an A-10
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>from an F-18.
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>Some of the bloopers in the war coverage on the alphabet networks
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>are amazing. The "talking heads" haven't a clue about military
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>terminology, and consistently get unit designations wrong, among
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>other things.
