As for bias in the statement, I don't see it

Yeah, it's only newsworthy when it is a civilian journalist, not a civilain contractor. No bias at all.

I only said that I didn't see bias in that one statement. I take it for granted that media, especially network anchors, are given extra martyr status whenever they get hurt. Woodruff wanted to get the Iraqi army point of view, and he got just that. I really hope he and Vogt survive this, as I hope that everyone injured under our flag survives.
