Wanna really get thier panties in a wad? Paint it up like the Ho229
Good catch Matt - you're probably right!!!!
The reaction of the press is typical "hysteria mongering": The photo of the drone in Afghanistan has raised questions about why the United States would be operating a stealth unmanned aircraft in a country where insurgents have no radar systems, prompting speculation Washington was using the drones for possible spying missions in neighboring Iran or Pakistan.
And these same reporters are most likely the ones who keep runnning stories about the number of soldiers who have died and using that number for political reasons, but at the same time would print an article like this IMO speaking negatively about a unmanned vehicle that saves lives by not placing a pilot in direct danger.

Blood sells. Technology does, too, but its not as graphic/sensational/controversial as blood. Harder to climb on a soapbox and rant against tech than blood.
