I remember standing on Parliament hill on parade waiting for Madam Sauve (sp) to come out and the media did not take any pictures of the soldiers on parade until one covered his ear because of the freezing cold wind, then all the cameras whizzed and next day there it was,front page, a guy holding his ear and a negative image story to accompany the pic.....nothing about how we stood at attention for a half an hour in the freezing cold waiting for the Politician to finish her tea until she finally "graced" us with her presence...what a joke
Unfortunately, these days the media looks for those things because thats what the public wants to see, its what sells !!
