MSM Journalist Tells The Truth, Upsets Katie Couric's World

While the news media have chosen to focus on civilians killed accidentally by US strikes, Laura Logan points out that the Taliban have killed ten times as many intentionally.

"Well, the issue of civilian casualties is a major one and the U.S. has taken a lot of criticism because of this. However, what's interesting to note that is according to the documents, 195 Aghan civilians have been killed. But also according to the documents, two thousand Afghan civilians have been killed by the Taliban, which is more than ten times the number said to be killed by U.S. and NATO forces. And very little is being made of that. The coverage would indicate that it's more of an issue for the U.S. to kill Afghan civilians than it is for the Taliban to do so."
