Death toll in Iraq
Today on CBS News on the radio the big headline was that 5 more soldiers have died today bring the total to over 600. That's great news for 200 families that had thought their loved oned had already died in Iraq. How can a news agency report the number at 800 one day then state it's 600 without even blinking an eye. They are so dishonest, and their fuzzy math dishonors those soldiers that "didn't die in Iraq", they must have just stopped breathing.

1. several posts on this today
email CBS and nail them on this. The only thing we can do is keep hammering home the only number to report is TOTAL deaths.
