For those who missed it, Matt Lauer was reporting live from Iraq on the Today show this morning. I caught this while blogging earlier today but forgot about it till I saw it on Instapundit.
LAUER: Don’t get me wrong, I think you’re probably telling the truth, but there might be a lot of people at home wondering how that might be possible with the conditions you’re facing and with the insurgent attacks you’re facing… What would you say to people who doubt that morale could be that high?
CAPTAIN SHERMAN POWELL: Well sir, I’d tell you, if I got my news from the newspapers I’d be pretty depressed as well.
