Journalists First, Americans Second

Recall seeing this years ago and did a Google search and found it. In it, Peter Jennings and Mike Wallace talk about their responsibilities as journalists first. Be sure to watch to the end where the general gives his reaction, it's priceless.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I did and this (I believe) from the 80's. Hasn't gotten any better, has it?

It is not the USAF general’s reaction that you mistakenly referenced, but the Marine colonel’s response which struck down the pompous Mike Wallace. But he said it very well. Marines would have died to save that traitorous bastard, who is no longer among us. Mike Wallace disgraced himself in this exchange.

Thanks for the clarification. I know Scowcroft gave them hell, but the colonel at the end gives them both barrels!!

This clip needs to be seen again and again by all.
Most American mainstream media “journalists” are discussing elitist dishonest unethical adle-brained cowardly shameless traitors.

The “journalists” self-congratulatory arrogance wouldn’t be nearly as offensive if in fact they honestly, fairly, and ethically reported the news ... but they don’t, and so they earn the contempt which many patriots have for them.
