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.

No problem, this is a bit tense watching this. Especially seeing how this guy was rushed into a bad situation by the teacher and everyone that said things were ok in Tikrit.

Gotten lessons from the information minister.

And they apparently overlooked the fact that they aren't in tanks.

Remember about 150 posts ago? I said their drivers just heard explosions and now they're following this teacher. They went totally stupid.
