Afghan War

I had trouble finding the same kind of article on all three websites, so I only used one that I found on CNN and MSNBC news. Both the articles are about US soldiers murdering innocent and un threatning civilians. The CNN article mainly focused on a specific account with not a lot of background detail unless you watch the video for the article on the website as well. The dialogue in the article was about a soldier who is being charged with murder and talks about how one of the guys they killed. THe man was not armed or dangerous and he was not a threat as said in the article.
The MSNBC article is about the same soldier mentioned in the CNN one and this one is less direct dialogue but more details and facts about the case and whats to be expected. They talk about the soldier, Jeremy Murlock, and what he faces for what he did, which was mentioned, and why he did it.
I don't think that Fox news had it because I don't see a lot of specific war articles on that website so maybe its not a big story for them at this time. In the end this is a big story because if we have US soldiers doing things like this, things we are trying to prevent, what progress are we making?
