Here's a question for the forum: Has an embedded reporter ever been fragged by the troops he is covering? If not, why not?

Look, its impossible to do their jobs and watch a bunch of selfish, promotion seeking reporters. This embed experiment has been bad from day 1. The press tells other side where our soldiers are, what type of weapons they're using, and time they might attack. Can you imagine reporters doing this during WWII? Embeds are embedded traitors and our soldiers are safer without them.

No, because any soldiers that were dumb enough to let a reporter die while embedded with them are going to find themselves in a world of trouble. If they had anything to do with the death, the military is going to come down on them like the hand of God.
