Additionally, some conservatives have claimed that journalists' coverage of the Iraq war is distorted by their alleged hostility to President Bush and the war. http://mediamatters.org/items/200606020001 Fri, 2 Jun 2006 09:55:02 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200605170013 On MSNBC's <em>Countdown</em>, host Keith Olbermann awarded third place in his nightly "Worst Person in the World" awards to Fox News host David Asman and <em>American Spectator</em> writer Mark Yost for comments they made on Fox News' <em>Your World with Neil Cavuto</em>. Asman stated that journalists covering the Iraq war are "not going to report on a lot of heroism." In response, Yost suggested that reporters are "somewhat embarrassed by people or feel lesser of themselves by people who do incredibly heroic things." Olbermann remarked: "That's right, boys. That's why the media covered up all the heroism on Flight 93." http://mediamatters.org/items/200605170013 Wed, 17 May 2006 18:31:01 EST
