This isn't a smart move...MSNBC has already made an investment in Arnett and, though his slant isn't what I'd call US friendly, it is informative and valuable. We seem to be getting rather fair treatment from MSNBC, at least to my view (Although Forrest Sawyer is a bit over the edge on doom and gloom). Frankly, I'd like to see Arnett reporting from the streets of Baghdad when the US forces arrive.

"Frankly, I'd like to see Arnett reporting from the streets of Baghdad when the US forces arrive." Arnett is another Dan Rather wannabe.
Granted, MSNBC is one camel turd up from CNN, but what good is a camel turd?
I'd rather not give him the satisfaction - BUT - IF he does survive until Baghdad is liberated, it could be quite a story - quite a story.

I saw Arnett on tv, before the war started, he was in Baghdad, I believe, and was trying to find his old friends to visit with. He loves the Iraqi people. There is nothing wrong with him having affection for the people.
But, his commentary on the war's progress is very disheartening. He is aiding the enemy in their fight to the nth degree. He is emboldening the Iraqi military to continue fighting!
