Is it a Civil War?

Ever since the war in Iraq started 3 years ago, the media has been trumpeting the idea of the Sunnis and Shiites breaking into civil war. Now that the sides are fighting, the media is acting like they knew this was gonna happen all along.

Just don't tell the media what they're doing. Don't hold them accountable for glorifying a position that makes the US bad. Oh no, these are "objective" journalists just reporting what they see. It's just a coincidence that mainstream news always denounces the US.
