Domestic press perspectives

Radicals complain that the "corporate media" gives short shrift to Iraqi suffering in the war. Here are a few stories just from today, which I gathered in a few minutes, to disprove the notion.

Washington Post, 30 Mar 03: 'The Sky Exploded' and Arkan Daif, 14, Was Dead.
Associated Press, 30 Mar 03: Iraqis Mourn Civilians Killed.
L.A. Times, 30 Mar 03: Small Town Caught Between Two Armies.
Newsweek, 7 Apr 03: The Mind of the Iraqis.
New York Times, 31 Mar 03: Tension at the Checkpoint, Fear Crossing the Bridge.

However, I couldn't find anything in the same quick check of CBS, CNN, or NBC. I didn't even try Fox News -- ha!
