Issue: Soldiers are telling reporters and speechwriter of the White House to say only good things about Iraq and the war.
Key people: American soldiers, news reporters and U.S.A speechwriter.
Exaggeration: The cartoon shows how U.S. soldiers bribe reporters and speechwriters of the white house to only report happy things about the Iraq war. Though this is not true.
What is the message: That the true and though painful facts about the Iraq war are not always told.
