Maybe she should have thought of her kids before she put herself in harm’s way.

To quote Monty Python: "No one expects the Spanish Inquisition." She was a reporter... it was a story. Usually, but not always, the press is left alone and treated as an observer.

I daresay the reporters believed that the Egyptians would want their story publicized, and they weren't endangered. Of course, in the Mideast, norms of behavior are quite different from in the West, so the risk was much higher.

American reporters were being attacked before she was. Why on earth would she think she wouldn’t be?

She’s supposedly a “foreign correspondent”....shouldn’t she know the ways of backward mooslims??
