The “what if the media covered…” shtick is not new. I used it myself three years ago when I wondered what it would be like if the mainstream media covered the NFL like they’re covering the war in Iraq. That column was read in full on Rush Limbaugh’s show, by the way (thanks, Rush).

There was also the excellent spoof “This is DNN: Feb. 21, 1944,” a 29-minute DVD by Clear Glass Productions.

The latest one is the imagined coverage by “PNN, the People’s News Network,” of the D-Day invasion. Give it a look below. And you just know that’s the way it would have been done had we had the media environment we have today.
