Rivera kicked out of Iraq
AFP - Celebrity television journalist Geraldo Rivera, who has been on assignment covering the US-led war in Iraq, has been told by US military officials that he is no longer welcome to accompany US troops there.
"I can confirm that it has been done," said military spokesman Navy Lieutenant Commander Charles Owens today, contacted at Central Command headquarters in Qatar.
Owens said Rivera, a star of the Fox News television network, was not embedded with troops, but had been "asked to leave the unit he was with."
Military officials were short on details about reasons for Rivera's dismissal, but according to US news reports, Rivera was told to leave Iraq after an on-air appearance during which he drew a map in the sand revealing information about US troop locations.
Military officials would not confirm the reason for the move however.
"We're suggesting that people call Fox News to get details," Owens said today.
