Yes, I began to get the impression that although she is alive, she may never be a reporter again.

Speaking of that, I haven't heard anything about Woodruff in a very long time. For a while, his look-alike (very handsome) brother would appear on GMA and give updates. I suppose it was much worse than they let on, if he's needing this much rehab and therapy. Or, maybe I've just missed any of the reports.

I generally won't diss foreign correspondents, since they're doing what I wanted to do from the time I was age 4 until I got a taste of what it might entail, in college, and I decided I liked desk jockeying better. My pain threshold is too low.

Prayers up for Ms Dozier and her family and for all those in Iraq at present, as well as those who love and care for them.

I guess I have to at least give these socialist demagogic nitwits that work over in Iraq for the drive by media credit for being out of the Green Zone.

I need to do this just to show people I am a compassionate conservative.

I have wanted to be a foreign correspondent myself since a little kid, but having a girlfriend and realizing how incredibly difficult it is to make it really has put me off from that idea, though I still have a burning in my blood to be a journalist despite no holidays hardly whatsoever, long hours, and pay that makes teachers look rich.

I actually wrote back and forth a little bit with Dozier via email, and she loved her job...she had a passion for it. I just pray she recovers.

Dozier's reporting on Iraq was better than average, some very good stories on reconstruction efforts, in fact. Some bad stories/lots of doom and gloom, but overall, better than average. Regardless, she knew how to tell a story well, even if it was not always as fair as it could have been.
