As you review the stories you'll typically see that there is some mention of Hezbollah having fired rockets upon Israel. It is often downplayed.
You don't really see the pictures of the rockets. And you don't see too many photos of the damage they cause.
It bothers me. There are two sides in this war and it is just not right to cover both of them.

Bothers me too. On the news here they (almost) NEVER show anything about the Israelis who have had to leave their homes and jobs.
My Mother-in-Law has been storing an entire clan of Northern refugees in her house for the past week or two, but is kicking them out today (sending them to her to relatives in Jerusalem) mostly because she's run out of food to feed them.
Very true. I think Hevbollah, if nothing else, has the PR thing down pat. Makes me wonder why the Israelis miss on this one...is it deliberate or a strategic error?
one of the tv news show i was watching said that israel does not allow them to say too much about what is going on, where the rockets have been falling, because they don't want to give the hezbullah any information.
Sarah,
It seems to be a universal problem.
Joe,
Your MIL should be thanked.
Z,
Israel has had PR problems for years.
Anon,
It is possible.
BW,
I hope that here in the blogosphere we are able to help combat that.
