How do the military in Iraq know what's on US news?
I'm watching MSNBC's Regan and 'that bitch' show ....... they're discussing 'pinko journalism' ..... the supposed showing of only bad news out of Iraq ... with no coverage of 'good news' ..... and how there are a cadre of RW talk show guyz over there covering 'the truth'.

My question .... how do the military know what's being shown here?

Could it be from Pig Boy on Armed Forces Radio? Maybe? Ya think?

3. Laptops Wifi and Internet
The folks I know use laptops and the internet to stay connected to the world. Just a thought.
