Interesting live footage on CNN
Posted on 04/12/2003 9:27:32 PM PDT by saquin
CNN reporter Brent Sadler traveling on a road very near Tikrit. The retired military officer in the studio keeps telling him to be careful. I find these live shots very nerve-wracking. It seems rather foolish for a reporter to be doing this, considering that Tikrit is a Saddam stronghold. Just a heads-up in case anyone is interested.

Where are all of the lootersLooks like the looters are on coffee break. It is, after all, 9:30am. Maybe they'll be back after the roach coach pulls out.
So far they haven't seen even one person. Anderson Cooper (who I hate) just reminded us that there are not even any dogs around. Thanks, Coop.

Yea! That would be awesome! That would really make the hair stand up on the back of his neck.
I think he may be getting a bit wierded out at this point. FINALLY some instinct kicks in.

Syria is closer to Tikrit than Iran, I think.

Do all CNN reporters have a Peter Arnett accent?

I thought it was over a million people!I read today that the population was 100,000 but just googled it and it said 28,000. By the looks of things I can see why a census would be difficult:)
