Iraq
ITN reporter confirmed dead

Go to link for entire article. It really couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. Lloyd was a true pro, notable for being the first journalist into Halabja after the gas attack in 1988.
There is now sufficient evidence to believe that ITV News Correspondent Terry Lloyd was killed in an incident on the Southern Iraq war front yesterday. It is believed his body is in a Basra hospital, which is still under Iraqi control. Two members of his team, Fred Nerac and Hussein Osman, are still missing and currently there is no information on their whereabouts or condition.

#3  He was a nice guy, a straight-up, no-nonsense, unbiased reporter (stand up). Not your all-too-common BBC or Channel 4 barely-constrained Das Kapital thumper.

#2  bulldog.."couldn't have happened to a nicer guy" in Americaneese means that he wasn't a nice guy. I'm guessing Frank is translating this correctly?
