Editorial: When does the truth emerge?

ISIS faces defeat in Mosul in northern Iraq, but a growing humanitarian crisis looms for survivors of the battle.



Can they set their pom poms down finally?


The media?


It's largely been left to foreign outlets to offer reality about the (ongoing) Iraq War.


The never ending Mosul Slog has especially made that clear.

(In fairness, Brian Ross has managed to get some bits of reality out to the public via ABC NEWS.)

At some point, will the US media acknowledge that the Iraq War wasn't ended, that Barack Obama did not keep his pledge and that many continue to die in this war?
