This, again, is why I think that the embed program is so incredibly revolutionary, in a good sense. Chris Tomlinson is just another AP guy, but so was Peter Arnett. And Dan Rather was "just another CBS guy."

These embeds are becoming folk stars, they're not going to be easy for the liberal "all soldiers are babykillers" senior producers and anchors to muzzle. And they're going to be the guys who in ten, fifteen, twenty, years are going to be sitting in the chairs at Columbia School of Journalism.

And when some snot-nosed spoiled-brat starts prattling about "babykillers" in one of their classes, they'll lean forward with fury on their face and say: "Let me tell you about a hot day in Iraq..."

Will this work on _all_ of them? No. But is it going to shift the balance in the media? You bet your patriotism it is.
