The fact media people are being targeted tells me terrorist spies have penetrated our military at the highest levels.It's obvious they are in Washington D.C. , & in the Drive-by Media.....
I'd guess there are some in the military too.

Following what the U.S. military is calling a "curious incident" in the Karada neighborhood of Baghdad, Dozier, Douglas and Brolan got out of their armored vehicle.See #62. seeBS has some explaining to do. And a US soldier died, an Iraqi died, as well as the military injuries. If the "reporters" jeopardized operational security, as is currently suspected, no mercy nor compassion will be shown for them.
To: Crawdad
If you google "Kimberly Dozier" you get an updated (revised within the last 2 hours) bio on her.
It seems CBS is writing about her in the past tense.
"she also reported for the CBS Evening News, CBS Evening News weekend editions, The Early Show and , the Network's 24-hour news service."
Notice "reported" not "reports." Also, there's a space before and after the comma following "The Early Show and ," which is unusual.
Someone at CBS is tinkering with her bio already.

Interesting. Either she'd dead. Or CBS is going to fire her after she recovers.

maybe the media will figure out that we are not the enemy The terrorist strategy has been to inflict conspicuous casualties and hope that the U.S. public becomes demoralized. The media focus on "if it bleeds, it leads" has abetted this strategy, but had the unintended consequence of making the media a target, as dead reporters get even more coverage than dead GIs. On the perverse media scale, if a dead Iraqi is worth one point, a dead GI is worth 10 and a dead western reporter is worth 100.

I guess they'll just have to make up the news now.
It's stupid comments like this that soil Free Republic's reputation. What's stupid about it? The Pajamajedin have caught them making up the news. "Fake But Accurate", remember?

I can't think of anything more American than risking your life for something you believe in, even if you are wrong. Both the cameraman and the sound man were Brits. The on screen reporter is, AFAIK, American though.

The tyrant has fallen. But for some, hes a fallen hero.... Iraqis are much like abused children: scarred by the man who was both father figure and enforcer. His rules were simple. Obey, and he would provide jobs, food rations, electricity and security. Rebel, and punishment was merciless. But Saddam Hussein also gave Iraqis dignity and pride. He became a symbol of defiance across the Arab world, never backing down from a fight....Those who loved him and those who hated him still cant separate the man from the country in their minds. For many, his humiliation is their own.

Replace Saddam Hussein with Stalin.
Replace Iraqis with Russians.
Oh, these guys are some of Nature's Noblemen.

You're right, but these are Americans. The cameraman and sound man were Brits. Allies, but not Americans.

Worldwide,some people are *clearly* more equal than others! True enough.But you'd think that the *caring* and *compassionate* politicians and residents (full and part-time) of *this* state would have done away with that stuff by now.
To: I still care
Kimberly Dozier,"Saddam Hussein also gave the Iraqis dignity and pride/his humiliation is their own."Tell that to the Kurds that he gassed,the women who were raped,the men,women,and children who were tortured and them murdered by Sadaam and his sons.I have NO sympathy for someone who writes trash like that.Face it,"journalists" like Dozier are traitors in our midst,and are working against America,Iraq,and the soldiers who are fighting and dying in Iraq.F'em

This has been updated twice now. First they said IED, then suicide car bomber, and have now wettled on car packed with explosives. The news is that the military is saying "courious incident". If seeBS leaked any information to stage a story, and got soldiers killed; they should pay with lives. And may well have.

"Kimberly, Paul and James were veterans of war coverage who proved their bravery and dedication every single day," McManus said. "They always volunteered for dangerous assignments and were invaluable in our attempt to report the news to the American public."She is either dead or someone wishes she was.
To: ARealMothersSonForever
Yep, our local news at noon read that statement from the CBS brass the same way, and it was printed on the screen simultaneously - I just kept thinking how strange it was to continually refer to the living correspondent in the past tense.
The scene they showed was in front of what looked like a large house - maybe it was "by the side of the road," but they weren't out on a shoulder of the highway. There was a sand-colored humvee sitting in the front yard (a large yard) that must have been another in the convoy, as it wasn't damaged.
They showed some footage after the bombing, but it was so close-up, in a tight shot on the interior of the vehicle, that you couldn't tell what or where it was.
