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.

Why do I have the feeling that CNN is doing this to try to redeem themselves?

*L* Baghdad Bob, looks like his services might be needed a bit north of his normal haunts.

The whole thing is probably 10 minutes. If I make the quality poor, probably.

It would suck if they had to divert someone on a mission to save unembedded reporters. Good lord......just imagine those headlines if they didn't get them quick enough of, gawd forbid, keep them alive!

Brent Sadler also covered the mass exodus of former Iraqi soldiers the other night... CNN is kicking butt right now.

Yep, when in a warzone, always ACCEPT the CDW insurance.
Hey, didn't that one guy at the checkpoint look like Keith Olberman? That would explain the gunfire at a CNN crew.
