Well when you need to get the word or the truth out there fast how do you do it? Today news can travel lightning fast and if your not on top of it then the wrong news can get out there. Well the military may start blogging:

Ex-Air Force Chief: Recruit Bloggers to Wage Afghan Info War

But if the Taliban are manipulating the information environment to make American attacks looks worse than they actually are, then the bloggers and photographers might be able to help.

"If you take down a place in Afghanistan, you've got to be in there with your cameras before the bad guys unload the truck of bodies (if that's what they're doing). Or, if they've put a bunch of women and children in there so you can blow them up — you need to be in there first to know that,” Wynne says.

"We're saddened when. the President has to go on the record and say, ‘we hate it when any casualties occur.'” Wynne adds. But the President "might not know” what actually occurred in such an incident — "because nobody blogged it.”

I think this is a GREAT idea. Not only to get the info out but it gives family members back home more info
