Via Memeorandum, Stars and Stripes reports:
"Contrary to the insistence of Pentagon officials this week that they are not rating the work of reporters covering U.S. forces in Afghanistan, Stars and Stripes has obtained documents that prove that reporters’ coverage is being graded as 'positive,' 'neutral' or 'negative.'”
"Moreover, the documents — recent confidential profiles of the work of individual reporters prepared by a Pentagon contractor — indicate that the ratings are intended to help Pentagon image-makers manipulate the types of stories that reporters produce while they are embedded with U.S. troops in Afghanistan."
Of course it's not surprising. See the rest of the story here.
Great attempt!!! Very nice blog providing good entertainment stuff as well as various information.
