Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A brief description of what the graphic is would help:

To all who helped this get started, thank you! Special thanks to null and void for keeping these threads running on the weekends, Mo1 for the screamer, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, and, of course,...

NBC confirms!!!!!

[Peach]

It will be POWs then. Two little tidbits of sources. Shep is overselling and many will think the war is over and will be disappointed, although delighted a POW is saved.

[Howlin]

This makes me sick. Shep said that they were ALL asked not to report what the story is...........and yet MSNBC and CNN have!

[prairiebreeze]

the delay is supposedly because CentCom is notifying the family

[PrivateIdaho]

Explosions heard on the CBS cam

Looks like a reporter is getting setup on the roof to the right of BagCam screen.

[Queen of Excelsior]

Confirmed on MSNBC

[steveegg]

I wouldn't wake up the lazy clymers in Qatar at 2 am for one POW, no matter how good news it is.

I'd wake them up at 2 am just for the hell of it :-)

[Peach]

CNBC is reporting AP says it's a POW is saved.

[Carolina]

Who could it be?

[GOPrincess]

A US POW rescued...Fox reporting because AP and other competition have let it out...they were keeping it quiet at request of CENTCOMM. They will keep details quiet.

[duckbutt]

POW has been rescued - - Shep said AP has already broken the story, so Fox is bringing the headline.

[melodie]

please let is be scott S.

[Howlin]

They are reporting it -- after being asked NOT to........I'm sick of them all!

Gotta be first, you know!

[TomGuy]

Booms and car alarms on Bagdadcam

[Green]

My radio station is saying that their AP wire is saying a POW has been rescued.

[Lauratealeaf]

They've rescued a prisoner of war

Great news! Wonder who it is?

[Poser]

Who has the link to the Freepers photo album?

[GOPrincess]

Ditto that re Speicher!

[Dog]

Could it be Scott??

[abnegation]

Shep...POW rescued, but not saying who.
