Positive Press on Iraq Is Aim of U.S. Contract
U.S. military leaders in Baghdad have put out for bid a two-year, $20 million public relations contract that calls for extensive monitoring of U.S. and Middle Eastern media in an effort to promote more positive coverage of news from Iraq.
The contract calls for assembling a database of selected news stories and assessing their tone as part of a program to provide "public relations products" that would improve coverage of the military command's performance, according to a statement of work attached to the proposal.

Chris Matthews might answer the call to lie for 20 million so will alot of other people. Now lying is legal and being paid big bucks. What ever happen to the religious moral honest of America under God. Satan's in charge and he's paying 20 million to anyone who will follow let's see how many applicates he gets.
I can think of the alot of things that 20 million can go such Katrina, Rita, education, healthcare, jobs, and so on... The Gerbil needs to take care home first and he is turing this country into a 3rd world country...
