Correction: RALEIGH, N.C. — A radio talk show host will record and release a song a Marine corporal wrote about killing members of an Iraqi family after being fired upon by that family, a spokesman for the show said Wednesday.
Perhaps the AP will get the story behind the lyrics of Hadji Girl right some day. What media bias, you say?

Marine Corps Times
Background on Hadji Girl and video with lyrics:
Hot Air
You know, this whole Hadji Girl thing was so blown out of proportion. The left hooted and howled and the media covered it. Then, people realized that there was nothing to the song and didn\'t actually talk about killing innocent Iraqis. It suddenly disappeared and the news was no longer interested. Meanwhile, the military is trying censor Cpl. Joshua Belile, the writer/performer of the song.
For those that haven\'t seen the video yet, go here before its forced off the site:

CJ, the Hot Air link has the video as well. They lyrics scroll over it, but it doesn't make the video unwatchable.
The MSM is still stupid. Very stupid. Wanna buy out the AP with me? We could probably convince them to take the Parking Lot Pennies.
That was the first time I have seen that video. I appreciate the link. Media bias is a given, unfortunately.
