Franks needs to be called down on this....he knows better than to give "background" briefings to reporters.

There was no doubt in my mind that this would happen. Watch the subject reporter claim "he didn't know" and that would be the truth - ignorance which may cost American and British lives. I'll bet he was told they need more information back home since the "awe and shock" show they had anticipated has not happened and they can't hold their audiences. In time of war, why don't we just take the bas---- out back and .... The press has not changed since Vietnam.

I do not trust Peter Jennings and ABC news.

Because he's a communist or because he hates America?

Live and learn.

Those people [the media] are not your friends.

When they are patting you on the back, they are only feeling for a soft place to stick the knife.

General Franks should make the guilty party walk point for a bit.

Who would want a creep with no integrity out front?

They're saying on tv that we have SF inside Baghdad. Unless this is untrue disinformation they should shut up!

Wasn't Franks the General that just got reprimanded for allowing his wife in on Military briefings?

Seems the Loose lips may be the guy wearing the Uniform.
Hey General, STFU!
