It Don't Matter To Me, If the Sun Don't Shine
A line from one of my favorite bands of the '60s that no one ever heard of: Bread. And it don't matter to the Western Media (according to Wretchard) just exactly who wins a conflict:
Of all the weapons of the insurgency, it is their ability to set the public terms of the debate that has proven the most powerful. Their model of fighting a combined media-arms campaign has created an alternative reality which Western opinion-makers unconsciously inhabit.And why is that, exactly? The truth is, there are more important issues than whether or not the sun happens to be shining at a particular time. But you'd never know it by reading the NYT. They're pretty much all about the atmospherics.
