Despite what powers the media thinks it has, they cant report everything they want to. Esp. if it comprimises operations. Sometimes they are censored to some extent, or told to hold off airing some stories. And they do, fearing it will make them look bad in the publics eyes , knowing they put lives in danger and only cared about ratings. So they stick with celeb. stories as fillers and to take ppls minds off of Iraq. Which I think is good, last thing the enemy needs is exposure.

The soldiers' drive back to Warhorse base after their visit to Himbus, Tahia and Abu Musa did offer one measure of Operation Bread Basket's success in rousting Qaeda cadres from their embeds. Three Strykers drove over an IED on a stretch of road the Americans call Route Ann. It did not go off. "There was no triggerman," said Coffey. "With our forces around, they cannot get into position [to detonate their bombs]."
