Many in the military community were thoroughly unimpressed with the piece -- especially since several of the officers featured in the expose were vocal critics of the conduct of the Iraq war. Liberal bloggers and media-watchers, on the other hand, were disgusted by what they saw as the latest disclosure of "the incestuous, extensive overlap between our media institutions and government officials." The outrage only grew, as the television networks decided not to cover the Times' scoop. Just today, Sen. John Kerry called for a "full investigation of this program," which the Pentagon claims is now suspended.
