Rubbing It In
ABC News carried a two minute piece last night on the Woodruff IED attack in Iraq. But I don't remember any coverage of this:
BAGHDAD, Iraq — Five American servicemen were killed in Iraq in separate attacks, the U.S. military said Thursday, including three soldiers who died in a roadside bomb blast.
I wonder how many U.S. soldiers dying equal one Bob Woodruff to ABC's editorial decision makers? Ten in one day? How about twenty? Yeah. Twenty might have gotten two precious minutes of ABC coverage.

In fairness to Woodruff, his wife released a statement addressing the coverage, mentioning that Bob would want soldiers injuries to be covered, not his. Do you think ABC was listening to him?

Nope.
