If this is true, and I am sure it is, being a member of the media is going to get very dangerous shortly.

This is called being an accessory to murder.
In a war zone, they are then the enemy.

SHOOT the bastards and stick a gun in theri cold dead hands.
It would be much nicer if you could just gut shoot them and cut their tongues out so they can't talk as they slowly die.

Was there ever any indication of who these journalists were working for? I expect this sort of thing from the arab media but if it were a western or American media outlet I would hope that more will be done than questioning of reporters.

"News media gets tip of a roadside bomb and sets up cameras to film US soldiers being blown up when it went off." That's not what it says at CENTCOM and that's not what happened.
From CENTCOM:
June 3, 2004
Release Number: 04-06-09
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
COALITION SOLDIERS QUESTION NEWS MEDIA FOLLOWING ROADSIDE
BOMB MOSUL, Iraq - Coalition soldiers questioned two news media cameramen and a reporter after a roadside bomb exploded near a Coalition convoy two kilometers north of Mosul June 3.
The media, who were at the scene prior to the attack, told soldiers at the scene they had received a tip to be at that location prior to the attack and they had witnessed the explosion.
There was minimal damage to a Coalition vehicle, a cracked windshield, and no serious injuries.
3rd Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division soldiers requested the media accompany them to a base camp in Mosul to answer questions as witnesses to the incident. The news media representatives left the base camp in the mid afternoon."

This won't get reported on the mainstream news.
The Pentagon and Department of Defense should hold a major news conference, something big enough the alphabet new will HAVE to film it, and tell the people about this.
Man, I hate the media with a passion.

This was published a few days ago (and reported here).
I STILL haven't heard which journalists, or which news organization thought this was a good idea.

Ok, which organization where the journalists members of? That was my first question when this came out last week.
The dispatch does not include that information, and I haven't seen anything since that identifies the "news media cameramen".
I wonder why?

They are worse than the terrorists.
I hope they are brought up on charges of treason and shot by firing squad.
