First of all, the assumption that the Press are non-combatants needs to be stripped out of the current RoE. Wish I could write more now, but I'll certainly be linking to this when I do get to write it. The GOP needs to change the rules of engagement.

The Quincy Herald Whig, or the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette are just some examples of papers which proudly identified their political affiliations. Now they like to perpetuate the myth that they are independent and impartial journalists. Of course they aren't and most media outlets bend to the left. I don't see anything wrong with activists starting their own media organizations. It would be refreshing to see a paper or TV station be honest about it's political leanings.
