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.

Well, thank goodness it's not "sweeps" week. I'd hate to see CNN's numbers go up too much because of this.

Well now they just went through the entrance to the city -- big arch-type gate things with saddams pic on a sign.

I don't know where they are, I guess going towards Tikrit again.

Maybe some Abdul will beat him severely about the head and shoulders with his sandal. God knows CNN has it coming.

He's like Clark Griswold asking for directions in E. St. Louis(ya know, the scene they always cut out when showing on TV).
