abc nightline put out a piece called combat diary which aired on 2 decmber, it was about 11 minutes following a platoon through fallujah. it is still available on the abcnews website. you need a realplayer superpass to view it though.

Back of FOX, pabianice:

Last weekend FNC ran an excellent "Breaking Point" regarding Marines in Fallujah.

One of their reporters, Greg Palkit and his crew joined India Company, which spear headed the Post-Election assault on Fallujah.

Fighting in the streets. On roof-tops and room-to-room. Excellent, balanced reporting all around.

If you search "Breaking Point" or backtrack the archives. You'll probably find it.

PS: I saw the same BBC segment earlier this week. I linked to it either here or at RightNation.

Jack.

I'm not getting a "bite" yet, servers must be very busy, but will leave on for a while and see if it downloads.

Superb video report BUMP! My compliments to the BBC. They sent a brave team to cover the battle. Smart move, because the result was a well-reported, shot and edited piece.
