What is the disdain with journalists when they are risking their lives to get the story out to the western world?

There is a childish element here that sees everything through the prism of a a false conservative value judgement. To this group everything and everybody falls on one side of an imagined fence or the other. In this case their formula is simple...

journalist = liberal = coward/liar/enemy

Therefore any journalist who pays the price for doing his job is either lying about it or just got what he deserves and any courage that he may show must be ignored or denied. That's what true conservatives do.

Agree.

Responsible conservatives test every statement - even the ones from known reporters.
