It was ever thus.

[Sam Hill]

A "questionable sources" ping.

[Jameison]

"These are the kind of sources Time trusted for such an important story. But for some reason they didn't tell us about their backgrounds."

Now why am I not surprised?
Anything to smear our troops and undermine President Bush will do, eh Time magazine?
What pathetic bunch of losers.

[Miss Marple]

Aside from the backgrounds of the three interviewed, the reporter can't really tell us if the e-mails he received were from those three with answers freely given (and not typed in while a terorist held a gun to their heads) or if the terrorists simply answered the e-mail queries themselves.

Must read.

[PeoplesRepublicOfWashington]

The story has a stench to it.

[Robert A Cook PE]

These stories will never be reported by the MSM, so we need to keep them ourselves as references.

[E.G.C.]

BTTT

[ClaireSolt]

Well, by golly, is Cindy Sheehan collecting donations for those terrorists, too?

[ballplayer]

" Nobody cares about ordinary Iraqis ,now they do" Interesting ,when the terrorists butcher families because they help the americans where is this crusader with his video camera? Under his bed .\Its about time for these scumbags to decide whos side they want to be on

[Always Right]

Gee, you don't think these Islamic Terrorists might slaughter people and try to make it look like the US did it. Who knows what happened, but that doesn't stop Time from running the propaganda of the terrorists.

This is a town where DVD's of almost daily beheadings and disembowelings are distributed to kids like cartoons, but they are just so very traumatized by the supposed Marine atrocities that they can't bring themselves to exhume the bodies of the alleged victims.

Why? I think we can guess the answer.

[armydawg1]

Apparently the Embedded reporter program is too dangerous for Time Magazine. Just like solid journalism techniques are too dangerous for Time Magazine....they might find the truth with such practices.

[Mo1]

In the ensuing weeks, McGirk and TIME's Baghdad staff members interviewed more than a dozen Haditha locals by e-mail

Didn't Murtha say power & electricity was so bad over there, that they only rec'd an hour a day of it

But they can send emails?

[W04Man]

Why are we now not hearing some of this about their sources on our friendly Fox News?

Bloggers catch UK Times in Marines photo smear

[wolfcreek]

There must some dumb-ass Leftist think-tank somewhere that sits around dreaming up new ways to bring down our troops and the Admin. As far as I can see, they've covered most of the bases.

IMHO, this will continue until some tort attorney with a set of stones, takes on those repsonsible for perpetrating and propagating journalistic malpractice with consequent pain and suffering to the victims and their families....
