Sounds like our soldiers have some common sense. The reporters for everyone but Fox are despised here as well. They are all inflicted with their own biased agenda.

God bless your son.

So Woodruff was supposed to do alive coverage during the State of the Union?

Isn't she still alive?

probably, but you'll never hear about it because one of our star journalist of the left leaning MSM was injured.

Exactly. Vargas was to report on the SOTU live from New York and Woodruff live from Iraq. Woodruff's role was to be a spoiler for the speech.

Any bets on how long it takes before some DUmmy claims that Woodruff was targeted by the military?

If that is the case then that makes him another propaganda enemy and stuff happens.

As far as we know, she is alive. She likely wishes that she was not. The brutality is not reported by the media. It is inhuman.

Rush limbaugh gave an excellent talk a couple weeks ago about the infusion of liberal journalists into the media. He said they are often good students who are eventually indoctrinated by their profs that they can change the world through their reporting (to their liberal/socialist slant). So most now do not go in to be objective reporters but to put their left slant on the stories. So a lib lawyer turned anchorman is a leftist idealogues dream.

ABC sent Woodruff to attack the SOTU speech on the ground in Iraq, but their "freedom fighter" friends apparently didn't get the memo.

Too bad. MSM will now be making Mr. Woodruff a martyr forgetting all about American militray casualties. You know MSN will caste all the blame for this incident on President Bush.

"ABC sent Woodruff to attack the SOTU speech on the ground in Iraq,..."

Has someone provided actual proof of this or is this simply supposition on our part?

All the more reason we should appreciate our brave soldiers who are in 24/7 danger.

Just some anti-MSM hyperbole.

ABC's announced their SOTU coverage plans (Vargas in NY and Woodruff in Iraq) on Friday.

Wonder why Woodruff and his cameraman decided to travel with the Iraqis in the convoy instead of the Americans?

He was embedded with our troops and our troops have a great sense of who the propagandist reporters are so if he was just a propagandist then our troops will treat but that's all.

He was traveling with the Iraqis when he was blown up.

He and his cameraman were filming from the moving vehicle when the terrorists detonated the device. I would expect the "freedom fighters" saw that they were vulnerable targets.
