Do you guys think when they say "100" ISIS insurgents killed here or 50 there it's real? If you do I have a bridge to sell you. They make up numbers that sound good.. Same with stories like this.. They want to sell the war propaganda by showing American lives are in danger.. What better way than to say a "innocent" reporter was shot down in a heli.

The media has always lied in support of wars. The moment reporters started getting embedded with troops, they were then at a conflict of interest to make legitimate reports.

This started way back in Vietnam. Prior to that it was the military reporters giving the news on the battlefield which you know was a load of BS.
