The U.S. Editor and Publisher magazine is reporting that all soldiers deployed to Iraq must now take part in mandatory media training to help soldiers communicate the military’s official line on the war effort. Talking point cards are given to military personnel. One of the current talking points reads: “We are a values-based, people-focused team that strives to uphold the dignity and respect of all.” Another talking point simply reads: “We are not an occupying force.”
