Is CBS Hiring Iraqi "Insurgents" to Provide Their Coverage?
I'm inclined to side with the Coalition on this one:
Terrorists have a long history of masquerading as neutral noncombatants in order to escape the terror zone unmolested. Whether its Palestinian terrorists pretending to be Red Crescent workers or Syrian and Iranian terrorists working as "stringers" and "freelancers" for the MSM, we should constantly ask ourselves just how these folks managed to be in the right place at the right time to cover attacks as they happen, not the immediate aftermath of those attacks.
If the MSM companies had any sense of propriety or patriotism at all, they'd be asking these questions themselves.
Fat chance of that.

Multinational forces detained an individual "who was injured when forces returned fire after they came under attack by small arms fire" earlier this week, a statement said.
"He was standing next to an armed insurgent who was killed at the time that he was injured. The individual in question was carrying press credentials from CBS News.
"Military officials detained this individual and are conducting an investigation into his previous activities as well as his alleged support of anti-Iraqi insurgency activities.
"There is probable cause to believe that (he) poses an imperative threat to coalition forces."

Hey, Teflon. I watched CBS last night and I think they might be a little more freaked than "just looking into it". Actually, Bob Scheiffer's(sp) words were,"we're taking this very seriously". I don't think they,CBS, can really afford many more screw-ups. It's funny to me because I think of them as all liberals. I never had a problem with any of the MSM before 9/11. I never thought about it. Since we only get four channels, we refuse to get a dish and there's no cable access out this far yet, I never "cared" too much that the news was manipulated. Now, since they consider 1/2a million to a million people watching the Pope's funeral on a big screen... thousands. I'm PO'd. Oh, this morning it's millions. No accuracy. This story, it will be interesting to see how they can minimize the terribleness(tresonness?) implications? I don't know, but Bob seriously looked mortified, to me. Maybe it was just because they got caught?
