I’d forgotten about that.

Ernie Pyle, he wasn't.

it was a long time ago but iirc it was a PBS FrontLine round table about reporting on war and went somethinmg like this...

A uniformed Captain ask Mike Wallace if he would let a US patrol get killed in the ambush he was reporting on from the other side.

He replied he probably would keep quiet because he was a reporter and not a combatant. He was then ask if the ambush was blown and now he was captured and screaming for help, should the soldiers rescue him to which he said "yes he was still a citizen."

The Captain raised his arm and pointed the stump of a wrist where his hand should be and said "Mister, we'd do it, and some good men would probably get killed… and you AREN"T WORTH IT!!!"
Needless to say he had no reply, you could hear a pin drop.

The one and only thing you ever need to know about the man. Nothing else need ever be said.

BTTT

Let me begin with my deepest condolences to Mike Wallace’s family and friends. It is always difficult to say good-bye to the ones you love and cherish.

I pray that God will forgive Mike Wallace for all his digressions in life and reward him all the good he did. Every man will be judged in the end.

I pray that one day I will one day forgive Mike Wallace and CBS for that particular 60 Minutes segment. To date I have not. That is my sin that I am willing to live with.

“No.”

Reason #1 that most troops hated the "On the ground" reporters on the battlefield.

He’s probably in hell then.

RIP though, I guess.

To live ones life and not hurt others...

I will not heap praise on those who encouraged the enemies of their countryman and liberty while driving around in Ferraris while they lived.

It's sad that it took 11 posts before anyone mentioned that he was a pinko.

The hell with all the RIP stuff - Good riddance to liberal trash and I'm sorry it took so long.
