On Hannity and Colmes today, Fox News analyst Bill Cowan got a little explicit with his words regarding the relationship between himself and the Pentagon.

"I've been on a lot of VIP trips as a Fox News guy, the Pentagon has send me. And believe me I know if they're fact finding trips the only facts I get are the what the Pentagon want to tell me. So certainly if these congressmen are going over there and meeting with the Iraqi's they're only gonna get a story from one side"

Fact finding missions with the Pentagon is a phrase I like. Since he's been on "a lot of VIP trips as a Fox News guy" do you think there is a conflict of interest?

    • Colin Powell's son, Michael Powell, is the chairman of the FCC - so there is a happy marriage of media and war indeed.
      Here's what the Washington Post had to say about the man;

      "Pompous and imperious, an ideologue who believes unfailingly in his own philosophy of how TV and radio should work (the FCC also has domain over telephone and emerging broadband technologies), Powell ignores or condemns anyone who opposes him."
      Later on, the article claims that, "'Arrogant' is the adjective used most often in any discussion of Powell and the way he pushes his personal agenda..." - Classic.

      Sound like anybody else in the government?
