Sick of him here, too. He doesn't fit FNC, and was getting the rest of them all stirred up over the poor journalists getting whacked after they refused to leave when told to do so...
Maybe I missed a spot or two, but Simon hasn't seemed to go off the deep end about it from what I've seen. He is sad, but I think he knew at least one of the dead personally, but he seems willing to accept the reality that they are in the middle of a war zone and that was the risk they took.
Anyway, they were TOLD to leave? When?
