Interesting thoughts, Scoop!
You have an excellent idea. I think it becomes a matter of getting anyone to air the thing; see my remarks about excluding contradictory information. Now if we had a government-run news network, that wouldn't be a problem at all.
Or another thought - just maybe they're too busy with the work to spend time tooting their own horns over it.
If you're really serious about wanting to know more about the reconstruction, I again offer for your reading pleasure:

And I will say this again, if they want to get the point across of all the
good that has been done show us. Show us the good. If the press can show us the bad, death and destruction and car bombs and streets littered with bodies and blood why can't the US governement, the Bush administratyion the military show us the good? Wouldn't it be in their best interest to win people over by spending money to show us the schools, hospitals, power plants and whatever? If I was Bush and the shit was hitting the fan like it is, I would have films done th show the good. Sell us the war. They can show us a guy making repairs on the space shuttle, they can show us when Bush, Rummy or Condi show up for a rah, rah rally in Iraq, so why can't they take time to show us the progress?
