"Their not the story! Move on..."

EXACTLY! This is exactly what I emailed them. I do regret the loss of any innocent life over there...BUT, the actions after the incident is way over the line. Saying our military is targeting western journalist is too much for me. I don't need a lecture from Shep.

I finally had to send them another email (after Shep implied he wanted us to stop):

--------------------------

Shep:

None of the patriotic Fox fans I know are saying "Screw those journalists."

We're all sad they were hit. We honor their commitment to bring us the news. We know the ones in the Palestinian Hotel have "minders."

What we're saying is, "It's not the biggest story of the war!"

You've told us about it. Plenty of times. Now move on and get back to being the Fox News Channel we've made number one in cable news. Those journalists are not bigger news than the latest attempt on Saddam, or the last brave Marine killed in combat. Do you know his or her name? Have you told us fifty times, or a hundred?

Come on, guys -- you're doing a great job. But the brave journalists bringing us the story are not the story itself, even when some of them get killed.
