This is confusing because I am not keeping track of threads.

First there was a story that the Amreican command was ticked off because information given "on background" was leaked.

Then there was a post saying that ABC had apologised for any unfortunate actions by unnamed individual reporters.

Then this -- a "leak" on a raw ABC network feed -- something that isn't supposed to be seen by the public, but isn't encrypted.

fRemember those huge satellite dishs. One of the cool things about them was the ability to see network transmissions going out to local stations. You could see newscasters picking their noses during commercial breaks, all kinds of stuff that the public wasn't supposed to see.

Peter Jennings just finished interviewing an embedded journalist driving with American troops toward Bazra.

They are encountering Iraqi soldiers who want to surrender, and the Marines are just ignoring the Iraqi soldiers and moving on.

No time to take prisoners.

Basra might be liberated this morning.

Thought I heard something that would fit that description on the radio this afternoon - coming from ABC.

Really couldn't believe I was hearing it.
