Shep on journalists shot at hotel: Founding fathers felt we needed freedom of the press so that regular citizens could check up on the government. Those people who are over there have Iraqi minders with them. How different are these minders from the military? These reporters went over there and aer scared for their lives, and who wouldn't be? They are there for you, just like those soldiers, and I pray that they come home safe.

It's the whining from them in the hotel..They want aguarantee we won't shoot when shot at..The arrogance that they are more important than civilian Iraqis that I hate.You don't hear it from all and never from the imbeds.

I agree...these guys for the most part are there to find out and report the truth, and we should've emphasized to our guys to NOT shoot at the hotel where they're staying.

I think it is just as sad that the guy from Poland, and the guy from Ukraine and the guy from Jordan died, as when Mike Kelly died.

I mourn them all..
