Question to the Media - Part II

By Dennis Lormel

With all due respect to Doug Farah's post, I don't believe in force, suppression or tyranny. Despite the eloquence of the editorial highlighted in the post, it is quite dated. Not only do we have a whole new world since 1922; we have a whole new world since 9/11. The threat we confront today is much different and more deadly than any we have confronted, especially on our own shores.

Our current environment requires cooperation and consideration of all segments of society, to include the media. I also believe in accountability, which revisits the question... at what point is the media accountable for compromising intelligence and investigative collection techniques?
