I would be expecting too much from CNN to mention that Rocky Versace, a Vietnam War POW and posthumous recipient of the Medal of Honor, was a devout Catholic who nearly entered the seminary rather than enroll in West Point.
Posthumous Medal of Honor goes to defiant POW
Contrast that with John J. Miller’s treatment on nationalreview.com.
Rocky Wins! A hero’s story.
I know what you’re thinking. I should expect news from cnn, not the editorial comment of NRO. The only editorializing that Mr. Miller does is the last sentence in his piece: “…make no mistake: There won’t ever be another Rocky Versace.” Other than that it is news like cnn is news, except that it has more facts. I don’t know about you but that’s what I want from the news I read – more relevant facts. Facts without the patently liberal bias of omission.
