Hussein Obama is Commander-in-Chief, the mainstream media have shut down their daily tallies of war dead Posted: April 3, 2011 | Author: barenakedislam <http://barenakedislam.wordpress.com/author/barenakedislam/> | Filed under: Military stories <http://en.wordpress.com/tag/military-stories/> | <http://barenakedislam.wordpress.com/2011/04/03/now-that-b-hussein-obama-is- commander-in-chief-the-mainstream-media-have-shut-down-their-daily-tallies-o f-war-dead/#comments> 18 Comments ≫ 592 American troops have been killed in Afghanistan since Obama announced the surge in December 2009. But casualties of war are only important to the left when they happen under a GOP president. <http://barenakedislam.wordpress.com/2011/04/03/now-that-b-hussein-obama-is- commander-in-chief-the-mainstream-media-have-shut-down-their-daily-tallies-o f-war-dead/iraqi-war-casualty-buried-at-arlington/> http://barenakedislam.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/coffin2.jpg?w=500&h=353 During the height of the Iraq war, the U.S. media paid close attention to troop deaths and fatalities, often making casualties among American soldiers leading stories <http://articles.cnn.com/2004-07-09/world/iraq.main_1_georgi-lazov-ivailo-ke pov-iraqi-deaths?_s=PM:WORLD> in newspapers and on the airwaves. But since Obama has been in office, the American press has essentially withdrawn from covering the war in Afghanistan, with the Pew Center finding that the media only devoted four percent <http://thinkprogress.org/2010/12/20/afghan-war-coverage/> of its coverage to the war during 2010. As troops deaths fail to be reported in the major media, icasualties.org continues to track the deaths among American and coalition forces in both Iraq and Afghanistan. According to its well-sourced data, 592 American soldiers <http://icasualties.org/OEF/ByMonth.aspx> have fallen in battle in Afghanistan since President Obama announced the surge of American troops in that country on December 1, 2009. <http://barenakedislam.wordpress.com/2011/04/03/now-that-b-hussein-obama-is- commander-in-chief-the-mainstream-media-have-shut-down-their-daily-tallies-o f-war-dead/soldiers-funeral/> http://barenakedislam.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/soldiers-funeral.jpg?w=512 &h=341 As the media has withdrawn from covering the war, the stories of these soldiers remain largely untold. One group in the media that has been reporting about war deaths has been local media, focusing on casualties among soldiers in the surrounding communities. A local Rhode Island news station covered the death of Dennis Poulin, who died Thursday in a German hospital from injuries he sustained in Afghanistan. Poulin was scheduled for a visit with his family within just a couple of weeks, and he leaves behind a wife and a five year old son. A number of veterans and support organizations exist where Americans can donate time and money to support our men and women risking their lives. The USO <http://www.uso.org/> and IAVA <http://www.iava.org/> both welcome your support and goodwill.
