Since we believe MSNBC is turning to the left a bit, let's email them
suggestion for stories.

I would like to know the following about our troops -

1 - How many seriously wounded, such as amputtes, have there been?

2 - How are long deployments affecting families and financial affairs of NG and Reserves?

3 - Moral, suicide and precursors to PTSD of our troops.

4 - A father of a Marine who wrote 2 books about his son's service, one Faith of our Sons, should be a regular guest since he gets a lot of letters from military families. He is very outspoken about how little money survivors of troops get in say comparison to 911 survivors..

We know they can't cover a lot of head on anti-Bush stuff but there are a bazillion stories out there that would tell the consequences of some of the policies of this crew in the WH. Also, I would like to actually hear of these supposed "good things" going on in Iraq, as long as it was balanced.

1. That is fine
but I am not so quick to agree that MSNBC is turning to the left

In fact, to be honest, all I am asking is objective reporting, not left or right

5. I agree
If they are turning, I hope it is towards the truth. Not the "left".

2. I really find it grotesque to have to thank news stations for reporting
the news.
