#1 if she'd partnered up with Al Jiz, they could've got the kids into an ambush on an American convoy! Wouldn't that make a great visual!

#4 As Frank Barrone would say "Holy crap!" Do you recall the photographer who got fired for combining two photos? All it did was make the US soldier appear vaguely more threatening to the civilians he had under temporary custody. This is ten times worse- why does she still have a job with a news organization?

#5 well if they fired her she could always go work for the BBC.

#6 You should remember that this is a 'made up' war by Bush and the everything bad in the world is connected with him, Haliburton, Enron, CIA, FBI, EIEIO. I noticed John Tulloh did not fire the reporter. What's a matter no backbone?

#7 The real headline we need to see in the papers:
Media endangering Iraqi children for ratings!

I want to see this clip aired on primetime, but I bet it's "disappeared" by now.

#8 Gina Wilkinson: Please God, donât let this thing explode now.

So what do you think was the primary motivation behind this statement?
A. Please, God, don't let these poor innocent children die while I dramatize their plight for the world!
-or-
B. Please, God, don't let these scrawny, little shits set this thing off before I get my story in. Helloooooo, Pullitzer!

#9 Dar, I think you can download a clip off Tim Blair or NZ Pundit.

On your second post, add (C) Please, God, don't let these idiot kids get brain matter on my outfit.

#10 She needs to be institutionalized. I don't think that an adult who could risk children this way can be rehabilitated. Maybe we can harvest her kidneys and save a human being with them.
