Fox Airs Psy Ops Propaganda

From the Washington Post, a story about how the military has attempted to shape the myth of Zarqawi. Because the small part he plays in the war doesn't fit the administration's narrative, they saw fit to target Iraqis with the misinformation techniques they perfected on the American public in the run up to the war. Buried deeper in the story:

Another briefing slide states that after U.S. commanders ordered that the atrocities of Saddam Hussein's government be publicized, U.S. psychological operations soldiers produced a video disc that not only was widely disseminated inside Iraq, but also was "seen on Fox News."

Psy Ops vids shown on a national news network. All the more depressing because it's not surprising in the least.
