FOX NEWS STILL FEATURES PENTAGON PUNDITS

Even after the New York Times revealed the military analysts seen on cable news stations are for most part making money off the war as lobbyists or on Board of defense contractors, FOX NEWS continues to give military analysts face time without any disclosure as to their ties to the defense industry.

And Fox is still airing -- without disclosure -- two of the exposed pundits, Robert H. Scales and Thomas McInerney. See them for yourself.

The New York Times publishes an exposé on the hidden ties between media military analysts and the Pentagon that most likely violate federal "covert propaganda" laws.

Sen. Carl Levin (D-Mich.) calls for an investigation of the propaganda purveyors, especially those with business ties to the Pentagon.

The Pentagon announces that it is immediately suspending their Retired Military Analyst Program.

Thousands of Americans are calling on Congress to launch an official investigation, and hold the Pentagon and their lapdog corporate media pals accountable.
