I have liked Michael Yon's reporting since I first read him.

He is one of the few that have told it like it is and been out there with the troops.

Never read Hemingways dispatches but I cannot imagine them any better than Michaels observations.

There’s a name for Michael Yon’s profession. Neither the New York Times nor CBS nor MSNBC employ anyone in this profession.

I am of course referring to the profession of “journalist.”

“He is one of the few that...[has} been out there with the troops.”

There have been hundreds (probably close to 350 different reporters) who have been embedded.
