Whatever You Do, Don't Tell Anyone!
"Air Force Launches Top Secret Satellite"--headline, CNN.com, Sept. 9

I was at the Post Office the other day and I was standing in line with 2 WWII Vets and they were angry with the news media discussing everything that our military does. One of them suggested that those reporters that put our troops in harms way because this need to be first should be placed in Gitmo next to those other terrorists. He had a point!

Yes!!! One reporter's freedom of speech ends when it endangers even one of our brave soldiers, imo!!! Endanger my country or one of the brave souls defending her freedoms and you're aiding the enemy!

I liked the letter from Iraq the other day where the soldier said that they now have "second string" reporters running around Iraq trying to become famous. If GREAT pictures like this one....



...earned Pulitzer's, we'd have more accurate reporting -- out of Iraq and elsewhere! Enough with the "it takes reporting bad news to win the good awards" crap!
