The episode specifically focuses on one platoon which had three soldiers convicted\u00a0 of murder following its Iraq deployment. Here is the trailer for the episode:<br \/>\n<script src=\"http:\/\/www.pbs.org\/wgbh\/pages\/frontline\/js\/pap\/embed.js?frol02n3ed9q477\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>The episode hasn&#8217;t aired yet so I don&#8217;t want to jump the gun and make a blanket judgment. However, PBS&#8217;s past reporting on the Iraq War (in particular the Haditha killings) hasn&#8217;t been great and there is an obvious hard-left bias at the network. I also worry that it could potentially reinforce the negative stereotypes that are associated with troops returning from combat.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully, PBS does this story some justice but I am not betting they will.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PBS&#8217;s Frontline has an episode tomorrow on the increase in crime around Fort Carson, Colorado since &hellip; <a title=\"New PBS Documentary: A Good Story or Anti-Military Hit Piece?\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=19147\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">New PBS Documentary: A Good Story or Anti-Military Hit Piece?<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":607,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[46,6,84],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19147","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-barack-obama","category-media","category-military-issues"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19147","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/607"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=19147"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19147\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=19147"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=19147"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=19147"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
