Even more mediawar

I've noticed a recent trend across the internet on writing about how the media is acting as a fifth column in regards to our current war and/or otherwise impeding our efforts. I think a lot of that is tied to the recent New York Rag's "revelation" that the U.S. is in fact fighting terrorism through the banking system...and their subsequent disclosure of exactly how we are doing that. Anyway, Michael Ledeen contributed an excellent blurb to the mix...money quote is "These people are not acting like journalists at all. They are acting as a fourth branch of government, co-equal with the others." Check it out.
