If the military had their shit in order they wouldn't be in the news.

I'm not blaming it on the media, nor did I say that or imply that.
C'mon Matthew, I thought you were bigger than that.
This kind of thing happens across the board.
You're currently bashing the military because its currently the popular thing to do.
No entity in America has their shit in order regarding this.

What?

You just said it's an issue because the media is making it one. Sounds like blaming the media to me. Maybe you should be more clear with what you're saying or implying.

I'm not bashing the military because its "popular", I'm bashing them because they dropped the ball big time. Just like Penn St. and plenty of others.

Is this just a non story to you? I'm really not understanding what we're even going back and forth about.

For hyping it.
Its an issue across the board. The ball is dropped everywhere.
So yes, it should be a non story because they are singling out the military.
Is today the military's turn to get beat up over it?
When do we bash other entity's that have have this issue.
Because all of the private sectors do.

And as I stated before - its harder to control in the military because >>> see all the stuff I have already posted above.

Singled out my ass. This isn't some mom and pop operation it's the f'ing military. Big organization + big scandal = big news. C'mon man.

Was Penn St singled out?

Yes its big news, not denying that at all.
Big news is whatever the media decides it should be.
Singled out.....big time......and you guys eat it up like whip cream on pie.
Yes, Penn state was singled out because it made for an awesome story.
