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.

The CNN reporter is either lucky, stupid, or dead from doing this trip.

What has happened?

Sadler: "We sparked a lot of interest, and now we are turning around."

They will be lucky to get out of there alive.

Gunfire now, They are being shot at. Dear god.
