Georgian television reporter Tamara Urushadze was shot in the arm today while reporting on live television. Unbelievably she tries to continue her report as colleagues bandage her up. Lucky girl.

So if they are truly under fire, why nobody is trying get just a tad further away or hide their heads? Are they brave, stupid, or fake?Try principled. From reading your Putin toady posts, I'd say it's a concept you wouldn't recognize if it bit you in the arse.

There are so many false accusations flying from both sides, so you have to consider the source.We can figure out your source. Pure Russian propaganda. Only a complete cowardly a**wipe tries to impugn the bravery of someone like this crew.

Perhaps he has no personal knowledge or experience of possibility 1, so he can't imagine it to be true.

I think his idea of bravery is removing his mouth from Putin’s backside without getting Vlad’s permission to do so first.

Some people have an agenda that precludes any consideration of reality.

Further info, found
here:
Georgian Public Broadcast TV said on Thursday that one of its correspondents was injured by a sniper while reporting live from the checkpoint outside the strategic city of Gori. Footage from Georgian TV showed Tamara Urushadze avoiding an unidentified object and later falling to the ground.
Crew members around her began to cry, "a bullet, a bullet" and "she got shot".
The reporter regained possession of the microphone and spoke again into the camera.
"Right now I got a shot with a bullet, but luckily I didn't receive a direct shot, it scratched my hand," she said, while showing her injured arm.
Meanwhile, another crew member helped her into a bullet-proof vest.
"Supposedly it was a sniper, because the whole day today behind us snipers were standing, I think it was some kind of a bullet. I can't say anything else right now, because we can't see anyone here and I don't know who made a shot," she said.
How come only one shot? It didn't appear they were protected from further fire.

That’s funny!
And the media let her get away with that story!!

“How come only one shot? “
I heard three. Could be two shots, and the first noise was flight crack, but I heard three thumps.
Then everybody took cover behind the news truck, one brave guy breaking cover to get the camera.
