This document analyzes and critiques two articles by David D. Kirkpatrick on the Egyptian protests and military response. It notes that Kirkpatrick's early January 2011 article focused more on portraying the protestors, while later articles in November 2011 seem to criticize the protestors more and align more closely with the U.S. and Egyptian military stances. The document questions whether Kirkpatrick began censoring his writing or allowing political biases over the following months.
