You, sir, are an ass.

Thank you for your kind and well thought out response. So 61 journalists killed since the invasion took place means they are reporting from their balconies? I can't find a figure on those injured.

Many of the reporters were meeting the insurgents (terrorists) for stories. Boo Hoo!

Joe, its obvious you have a dog in this fight. So I'll ask you. I see lots of MSM reporters pointing out how many "journalists" were killed so far.

My question, how many of those killed were MSM journalists? I think only very, very few. My gut instinct is that the ones who were killed were the ones who are reporting the true story that the MSM ignores or simply spikes. The ones who were not afraid to get "dirty". The ones who didn't wait for the 5 O'Clock follies.

And I think the MSM runs and hides behind that number in a cynical attempt to take credit where none is due.

Let's find out how many of those were journalists
from foreign news services and were out in the field.
I've seen a lot of those guys being credited in reports
and casualty reports.

Then, let's find out how many American journalists were
hurt or killed standing on their balconies. Whats-her-name said that on the NBC evening news last night: "Even the balconies can be dangerous." Then see how many American journalists were killed or injured in Baghdad.

Then let's see who's left.

How many were American? How many were Iraqi?

I, for one, would like to see a breakdown of those 61.
