Because he is and always has been a terrorist sympathizer. You don't know that. You don't much of anything about these men, yet you make such a statement.
Pitiful.

I watch and listen to very little news but I read a lot, that's how I solve it.

I talk to everybody. Psychiatrists, best friends, casual friends, clerks at the store - my need to babble to get things in focus is strong. I couldn't afford to pay a psychologist enough hours! The shrink would just try to put me on Lexapro or something....

Olaf Wiig, as I understand it, is not a Fox staffer but a freelance cameraman.
To: sinkspur
His comments are inexcusable. I am certainly pleased they were released but now he's enabling terrorism with his idiot statements. What a bonehead.

"A sanctimonious and stupid comment."
Don't be such a twit.

His comments are inexcusable.Wieg's are certainly over the top, but Centani has said nothing objectionable, IMO.

It was one time I agreed with Clark but only once and then you turn on Shep and listen to him rant about how Israel is so cruel and now you have to listen to Shep about how Bush was so cruel when it comes to Katrina "victims". I don't like to complain and I use to like FOX but I will call it like I see it and they are taking a left turn.

Thanks for providing the Italians name. I had remembered the event but not the name. For those who missed it:
http://www.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/meast/04/15/iraq.hostages.int/index.
"Al-Jazeera said it received the video of the execution Wednesday from a group claiming to be "The Mujahedeen Brigade." Al-Jazeera said it did not air the video because it was too graphic."
"Frattini later described how Quattrocchi was executed. "When the murderers were pointing a pistol at him, this man tried to take off his hood and shouted: 'Now I'm going to show you how an Italian dies'. And they killed him."

i hear ya. i guess that's mostly what i do too. i try to pass on to my family the things i glean...the things i read...and what they mean in the real world when ya think about them, but i need to figure out if there's something more that can be done.
and maybe that's the biggest issue for me. when i read and think about what i see, the answers are fairly obvious. i conclude the other side doesn't read and they don't think. how can we help them read and think?
actually, i take some of that back. i believe they read, they read MSM crap and believe it. they just must not think about what they read. so the question is, what can get them to think reasonably about what's real?
anyway, thanks tobyhill for your reply.

Well, he did call the Palestinians beautiful, kindhearted people - something like that. A matter of opinion, I suppose but I don't agree. What kind of people build a museum to celebrate the murder of innocents in a pizza parlor, complete with faux bloody body parts hanging on the walls??

He knows that if he says anything unfavorable his career in Mideast countries is over. Next time he goes there he will be hunted down and his throat slit.
To: sinkspur
"You don't know that. You don't much of anything about these men, yet you make such a statement."
and you do?
Fact: FOX said they went voluntarily into Gaza to cover the Palestinian side of the conflict. Who but Palestinian supporters would be crazy enough to do that? Tell me!
They are either Palistinian supporters, thrill seekers who get off on danger, or stone cold stupid. My vote is all of the above.

He's an idiot. They would have cut his head off if he hadn't sworn allegience to their patron.

You could just as easily rightly assume that they went into Gaza because they wanted to see Israel crush the Palestinians.
That is just as uninformed a speculation as yours.

It was not a "conversion." It was saying things so that you don't get killed.No reason for Wiig to convert since he's already a Pali sympathizer. Throw him to the pagans.
To: mreerm
I use to not but now I think of FOX as just another MSM outlet. No one will agree 100% of the time with any source they follow but just 50% would be nice. FOX is the last visual media source that I could (past tense) count on getting me that 50%.
