There's little media reaction to a new Bush administration report touting "progress" in Iraq, U.S. Media Research Center said Thursday.
The administration had expected the report to be a big news Tuesday, which claimed that Iraq had made satisfactory progress on15 of the 18 political benchmarks set by the United States.
But the Media Research Center said in a finding that there wasn't a word about the report on the CBS Evening News, NBC Nightly News, or ABC's World News Tonight.
The New York Times also ignored the story, and the Washington Post relegated its coverage of the report to page eight.
