>>I'll be damned if they didn't show FreeRepublic as the example of a conservative website. The quoted a post saying something about the Marines should do the imbeds after they do the terrorists.
> Really. I didn't see it. Is there another thread about this?

Yes, there are a number of duplicate threads, and FR is being held up to illustrate how ill informed, or just plain dangerous, conservatives are. :-(

For example, posters have suggested that the Geneva Conventions should be abandoned, that all embedded reporters should be shot, that there's nothing wrong with shooting prisoners, etc.

Unfortunately, I think those extremist views are outside the general range of disagreement on the topic that we have, but that's what gets portrayed elsewhere.

I think you're missing the point here.

Kevin Sites worked with Tom Brokaw. Kevin Sites knows what's going on. I would well wager that Sites is fully embedded with the MSM and their commie views. He knows that the MSM is anti-Bush and anti-war and he knew damn well what would happen with that footage when he handed it to them. I would equate it to handing a gun to the enemy.

The actions of this Marine should not be evaluated in the enemy camp, i.e., the MSM.
