It was actually reported several hours ago on Fox and CNN, it was the 3rd Inf. div(I have a friend there btw). And they reported that it wasn't true.

Well then MSNBC is really...reallllyyyyyyyy behind. I havent been watching FOX because they have been down-right dreadful covering this. I cant watch that grainy blocky footage of Oliver North and Whorealdo.

That shows how bright you are. Fox has guys with the troops that are actually doing stuff. The other networks are with troops way behind the action who aredoing nothing. Behind the lines full blown satellite links can be used and NBC and CNN are using them. Geraldo is with the 1,000 airborne troops that are going after Osama. North is with the marine troops who will be doing the first ground attack. You can't take a commercial grade uplink into combat. It takes two huge simi trucks to do a commercial grade link. The other networks are back where it is safe.

If really good quality video is what you are after, the Cartoon Channel is putting out superb quality pictures tonight, you may want to watch them.
