Fox ran segments on CNN reporters being expelled from Baghdad -- even had pictures of them at the border!

I have no doubt that Geraldo wants the US to win the war. I think it was a victory sign.

I am glad they pulled him out though, if he was crossing the line and do think fox should talk about it!

I'm concerned about Ollie North now IF he keeps using that expression of him/them being the "tip of the spear".

But I think he's a bit more careful than Geraldo was.... after all, North was pretting good at "covert" operations. *chuckling*

It's only 9AM, and we have a two-fer.

While we're at it, who should be #3? I vote for that CNN guy that's hanging around in Northern Iraq.

His heart may be in the right place (with the troops), but he just can't contain himself...

Actually, I like Geraldo and have enjoyed his reports. He allowed the soldiers to say hello to their family and friends back home. He seemed to be a little giddy last night and had a much too cavalier attitude about the seriousness of what the 101st Airborne are doing over there. You stated it well though. His heart may be in the right place... I agree.

Did you see him use the sand for his illustrator to show which troops were going where and how they were going to attack the cities? I sat here stunned! I wondered if the military would pull the plug!

That so-called "Peace Sign" is his normal sign-off to his kids that he has been doing for years and years...

Agreed... I just cringe at the "V" sign because it seems like an afront to the soldiers because of the hippies in the 60's and 70's who used it. The Muslims in the region use it to in Anti-American rallies.

North was pretting good at "covert" operations.

the fact that we know about them suggest that he wasn't. though, having been a marine colonel, one imagines he has some sense of where the line is.

Ollie does a great job and have noticed when they are on a mission, he doesn't appear on the TV. Am very impressed with his reports!

I think his heart wants only to be in the center of attention.

"Arnett- check
Geraldo- check
Jennings
Rather
Brokaw

Two down ......"




I think Rather's gonna just have a heart attack soon..... he doesn't look real healthy lately. I think it's getting harder for him since his infamous interview with Saddam.

An open letter to America about Geraldo Rivera,Peter Arnett,the Press, and Liberals in general.For all of you who think Liberals change here is a good example.
The press is loaded with Peter Arnetts and Geraldos who I think deep down want the war to go bad.
Remember Ellen Ratner? These people are liberal first and foremost and could give a damn less about America.
I am of the opinion that Peter Arnett should really be tried for treason because he has aided and abetted the enemy and tried, probably successfully to encourage those on the other side to step up the fighting.His statement cant be construed as anything else.
Amercias Institutes of higher learning are turning out children who are brainwashed and our country is being sold out from within. Apparently there is only one thought being taught and that is the liberal thought.Just look at the college professor from Columbia University that advocates the slaughtering of Amercian troops. The press and the Liberal wing of the Democrat Party and for that matter neither party is addressing these sentiments on our University Campuses and especially those who receive government funds. We are truly being destroyed from within. Look at Lawyers,journalist, and those who control the greatest weapon of all,communications. I think they are between 85-90% liberal.
The press briefing on FOX this morning and every morning shows me the press is in place with an agenda not to be impartial. It is the liberal and PC crowds attempt to take over America.They use keywords and garner information that aides the enemy and weakens our armed forces.
One of the female reporters accused Americas Military spokemen of using loaded words and demonizing the Iraqis. Just before her questions another reporter accused one of our pilots of being a cowboy flyer, now where have we heard that term before?"Cowboy" is a French and Liberal keyword. Now who is really demonizing and using loaded words and phrases?
We truly need a conservative uprising and if the silent majority is truly conservative we had better be heard while we can because we are being overthrown and brainwashed from those in our own country.

well, i for one have been, but not over this. there is a distinction to be made -- it's called intent.

Rather, Brokaw, Jenning--Don't get greedy. Pigs get fat. Hogs get slaughtered.

I want to go after the moveon.org. clowns who must have infested CBS Radio and are drafting their news copy. Some of their top-of-hour headlines have left me speechless. From time to time, they have used the words "setback" and "stalemate"
