An Open Letter To The Press

Sirs:

More war photos please.

The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are the salient events of the decade, and for millions of people, the most significant events in the whole of their lives.

There are accusations that your coverage of these events is heavily filtered. For example, you have been deliberately withholding photographs of dead soldiers -- a fairly significant byproduct of these conflicts.

What else are you withholding? Does this mean the wars are not as tidy and happy as you portray? How do I know? Can I trust what you publish? How much should I dismiss as propaganda?

Sincerely Yours, etc.
