I knew this was bound to happen: An irate journalism professor calling me a disgrace to my profession.

Since my response is not polite, I won't use this guy's name. But I will tell you he teaches at an Ivy League school.

We saw that as he delivered it....he should have given the professor's name and school; there are kids and parents out there 'college shopping'.

Hit them where it hurts. I'd like to see more people calling these people for what they are and doing it in the mainstream media. I guess that is why O'reilly is so successful on Fox.

Speaking of Fox, Tony Snow mentioned Middleburg, Virginia a little while ago. Did anyone hear what he was talking about? I live there. Someone important may be visiting.

He stated that American troops are about as far from Baghdad as Middleburg is from D.C.

Thanks, I got a report on the situation room thread. They were just comparing the distance to Bagdad of our forces. About the same as Middleburg is from DC.

Neil

Bravo Zulu your American First, Journalist Second.

Your pride in America gives fire and reality to your reporting--MORE truth and accuracy rather than less.

Without your underlying passion, you and our other Fox friends would be indistinguishable from the unscrupulous weasels of the rest of the media.

The journalism professor you nail so well no doubt pants at the thought of, say, the Old Gray Drag Queen, with its incessant America bashing.

The professor would likely leap into Peter Jenning's lap and lick his face every time that Prince of Arrogance slanders the better men than he who lead our nation.

You are what America is all about--doing a job well, with the noblest of passion, that for the bastion of freedom and light of the world.

The hypocrites of academe and the hacks of journalism may lick the boots of dictators and criminals of the world till they die, but, sir, YOU AND FOX RULE.

I used to live in Centreville, and that is not very far.

Too bad we have lost this war according to the pedophiles like Scott Ritter and his liberal butt buddies on tv and in the fishwraps.

Go to the Fox news website and you can view Neil's comments for the past week or so I believe.

Cavuto is right on, glad to see more and more people standing up to liberal professors. But one thing he said is wrong. He says that his country gave him the right of free speech. If his country gave him that right it can just as easily take it away.

From the Declaration of Independance:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights.

Our rights come from God and no country or government can take them away.

Posted before, but all should know!!!

Snip...."

Ogletree pushed Wallace. Didn't Jennings have some higher duty to do something other than just roll film as soldiers from his own country were being shot?

"No," Wallace said flatly and immediately. "You don't have a higher duty. No. No. You're a reporter!" (Emphasis mine)

Jennings backtracked fast. Wallace was right, he said: "I chickened out." Jennings said that he had "played the hypothetical very hard."He had lost sight of his journalistic duty to remain detached. "


Reporter first?  American.....NO!! Not in my books!!!

Middleburg, Virginia a little while ago. Did anyone hear what he was talking about? I live there.

Iraqi forces are only 50 miles from Middlegurg, VA, according to Wolf Blitzer.

I am pretty sure the jacka$$ who sent this letter is the guy that O'Reilly had on his program last night. His name is Mitchel Stephens and he is a "journalism professor" at NYU. There are some threads on this guy. If you do a search on Jacka$$ it will pop up.
