LOL! Ya'all trust these news hounds and MSNBC far too much. They are the worst of the worst when it comes to distorting and mis-reporting.

CNN get's caught more because they have ten times the audience. You shall see!

Here's the email I sent them;

I haven't watched your network for more that five minutes in the last two years but was on an online forum ( Free Republic.com ) and Dr. Arnot's live report from Iraq was mentioned as a must listen. Turned to MSNBC and wasn't disappointed. I was glued to TV. MSNBC needs to do more reports like that one to get more viewers. One complaint I and others have was the woman anchor's inputs were not welcome. In fact they were downright annoying and useless. They detracted from an otherwise intensely powerful picture that needed no video.

Thank you.

MSNBC is assuredly the best on the War and Arnot deserves some kind of medal for his enthusiastic reporting, his humanitarianism. Did you hear him say when they had to move "Oh, come on we have to take the civilians with, we can't leave them here!" Arnot has been the most impressive this past week or so and after tonight well MSNBC has got it!

ARNOT gets pullitzer mark my words...

Pulitzers are for print journalism only. The best Arnot can hope for is a DuPont Columbia Broadcast Journalism Award, which is the lesser-known TV equivalent.

Read 90% of the thread and listened to the MSNBC reruns of the event.

Kudos to that reporter and the U.S. Marines taking that bridge.

(BTW: The MSNBC blond - email her about that doo.)

The firefight was spellbinding, but I think the deal with caring for the Iraqi civilians is what will make this piece one for the records ... and I sure hope that damn AllJazzError airs it for the Arab streets.

Al-Jazzy won't ever do that. They haven't even a tenuous grasp of reality and don't want the ARAB STREET to, either.

We had a thread in the situation room.Dr Arnot did the job. The anchor sometimes should have kept quiet.
