Colonel Pappas is one of our most illustrious Marines. Everyone should take his advice seriously, ESPECIALLY the clumsy, partisan, useless liberal media.

It's gotcha journalism pure and simple. Sensationalism wrapped amid a "scoop" mentality reduceing the story to a sound bite that reflect more the bias of the journalist than what the story is about.

OK, you're a Marine searching enemy bodies in a mosque. One of the bodies is starting to move and there is a reporter filming in the room.
You only have two rounds left.

Quick! What do you do?

Journalists should have no business putting their spin on things like what this Marine did unless they have walked in the same shoes. Bunch of liberal jackasses who don't know s%$t about combat.

The MSM is just piggybacking on the communist propaganda streams from the cold war.

[Paleo Conservative]

The Marine in question had no way of knowing that the ?possum? player was injured, was not about to set off a bomb, or, draw a weapon and begin shooting.

That is absolutetly correct. The MSM describes the terrorist as being unarmed, but unless he has been strip and cavity searched, how can a terrorist be proven to be unarmed?

[Starboard]

The episode of media recording the shooting of an enemy combatant in a fortress masquerading as a Mosque is one of the reasons why military men learn to never trust the “media.”

There are growing legions of Americans who no longer trust the media. Add to that the military personnel, their families and friends who are learning the same lesson. The anti-American left wing media has depleted whatever credibility they may have once enjoyed. Its fun watching their audience steadily evaporate.
