First of all, I’m sorry this guy got killed. It would be my hope that very few Iraqis die from this point forward. I’m sure that won’t be the case though.

I wonder if the WP realizes that when it or the NYT or other leftist media concerns and the leftist Congress contribute to prolonging the war, or defeating U.S. interests in Iraq, that it will cost more correspondent’s and Iraqi lives?

More important to me, is that it will also cost more U.S. troop lives.

I guess that this is why my first instinct when reading a report like this is to ask how the W.P. feels realizing what it’s efforts have resulted in, and be inclined to say ‘so what’.

Well, I won’t do that. I wish this man’s family well, and the Washington Post can go to hell.

Details of the incident were still unclear, the Post said. Saif Aldin was the first Post reporter to be killed during the Iraq war, the newspaper said.

He was probably setting up the IED he intended to film, and it exploded prematurely.

This shirt is a salute to all the A-holes out there who spend their nights
in the Green Zone being protected by U.S. soldiers, getting hammered,
hooking up with random women, and then brushing off their hangovers
just in time to pull some news off the wire and reproduce it as if
they actually are doing anything in Iraq.

American journalists hardly ever leave the confines of the Baghdad Sheraton/Palestine fotress.

Here's their graphics and CLIK HERE to read how "JOURNALISTS KILLED ON DUTY: 118*".

Out of 118 killed, only 2 Americans. I bet this guy was not an employyee of the Washington Post, just some poor Iraqi who the Washington Post paid crap.

What will the Washington Post do for his family? Will Dana Post write an expose on how they treat them like crap?

Feel sorry for this man’s family and I’m sorry he died. But the Washington Post is such a biased, traitorous news organization. I don’t feel sorry for the newspaper.

God speed to the poor bastard but he was the furthest thing from a ‘W*shPost reporter. In fact, it is clear by now that none of the odious quislings actually employed at the W*asPost cesspit on 15th street in Washington is likely to spend any time actually covering firsthand the war in Iraq. First, as a group they are the worst sort of moral, intellectual and physical cowards. In fact, they routinely flaunt their cowardice, their hatred of their country and their utter contempt for the dedicated warriors fighting and dying for our freedom. The last place the morally corrupt W*shPosties and their mainslimemedia fellow travelers want to be is in Iraq, where they would be forced to confront directly the moral superiority and sheer courage of those same warriors they have slimed with their lies, for the last six years

I wonder if the WaPo realizes its complicity in his death?

I’m appalled by the ignorant comments on this thread.
