Quote by Orson Scott Card, The Riots of t

Too many people in the American media have lost any concept of loyalty to their country -- if they even consider it their country, rather than just their residence.Yeah, that's right, I'm playing the patriotism card. But not the way you think.Our country is at war. And it's a war in which victory absolutely depends on the Muslim world perceiving it as a war between the U.S and its allies on one side, and fanatical murderous terrorists on the other.If it is ever perceived as a war against Islam, then we have lost. The world has lost.So during such a difficult time, even people who think the Iraq War or even the whole war on terror is a horrible mistake still have an obligation of loyalty to the nation that offers them protection, prosperity, and freedom.Copyright

Too many people in the American media have lost any concept

The author highlights that the media should maintain a sense of loyalty to the United States, regardless of their personal opinions about the Iraq War or the war on terror.

The quote suggests that loyalty to one's nation is crucial, even for those who may disagree with particular foreign policies, in recognizing the benefits of protection, prosperity, and freedom that their country offers.
