Rumsfeld Says Media Speads 'Misinformation' About Iraq...

Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld took to the airwaves June 27 to clear up what he characterized as "misinformation" by the media about the war in Iraq, telling radio listeners in Kansas City, Mo., that "the news media seem to want to carry the negative."

During an interview with Jerry Agar of KMBZ News Radio 980, who recently visited Iraq for a first-hand look at conditions there, the secretary addressed a "disconnect" between what's really happening in Iraq and what the American public sees and hears in the media.
