I found it. His name is Air Marshal Brian Burridge, UK CentCom. Here's what he said to the press:
The decision by Al Jazeera to broadcast such material is deplorable and we call upon them to desist from future broadcasts of such a nature. I appreciate that all media outlets have a strong desire for "exclusive" pictures and we have no desire to limit journalistic freedom in any way. However, all media outlets must be aware of the limits of taste and decency and be wary that they do not unwittingly become tools for Iraqi propaganda.

Air Marshal Brian Burridge then took his first question from the Al Jazeera reporter, which turned out to be more of a statement. As I remember, Burridge then said, your network can take no pride in being balanced.
