Tanks on the bridge ... one took a shot.
The lead tank looks like it has a PWO/MIA flag flying from it.
Uh-OH - Zips in the wire

The cameraman appears to have been shot while filming. Ouch! Looks like Abu Dhabi TV is next.

I think Baghdad Bob was having a late lunch with Saddam, they both got indigestion....

Me too! Although, if he's dead, last night's frenzied appearance was a fitting series finale :)

"Sorry, but CNN is kicking Fox's butt tonight. They have had more camera angles and continuous coverage for the last hour, while Fox has just had occassional shots for short periods and spending most of the time saying the same things for the 100th time."
I've noted that at any time, one network may have the best video coverage, of some event or aspect.
I've further noted that the political agenda of CNN, MSNBC, the BBC soon litter the audio with their inane commentary. As soon as facts clear away one "quagmire" they are quick to find and report another.
Their political agenda is vaguely searching for a neutral spin, as if they want to be "world" TV and not American/Coalition TV.
FOX consistently has, in my view, the most intelligent commentary. The political agenda of FOX comes across clearly that US/British victory is the goal, that they support.

Could be a highly visible feint on the Jumhuriya Bridge, near the exact center of town, and they're ACTUALLY going to assault and capture either the Tamuz Bridge or the Jadriyah Bridge (further south, leading to the peninsula made by the Tigris Bend.

The ASSHO!E on CNN is really pi$$ing me off...he thinks we did wrong, we shouldn't be doing this, that all the Arabs in the world hate us now and that we don't have any staying power, that all the terrorist in the world will try to kill America now....
To: Joe Hadenuf
Seems at this point these guys are being held against their will, and have become human shields.

I have to mute CNN. They might have great images but I can't deal with the constant drone of second guessing and speaking on behalf of America's haters.

I'm not surprised they lost their cameraman...there was obviously someone firing an AK from directly in front of his position. I saw the ejected shell casings flying up.
The M1 got sick of it, swung around, and took them out. Can't say as I blame him.
That's what I saw.
To: EternalVigilance
I am waiting for them to rerun that video.....
To: Joe Hadenuf
They just ran it again, and I saw exactly the same thing.

Simon Marks on FOX says Aljazeera reporter killed. States that Coalition forces targeted and deliberate attempted to take out Aljazeera and Abu Dhabi.
I don't believe that.
