But while the bloggers are feeling empowered, some in their ranks are openly questioning where they are headed. One was Jeff Jarvis, the head of the Internet arm of Advance Publications, who publishes a blog at buzzmachine.com. Mr. Jarvis said bloggers should keep their real target in mind. "I wish our goal were not taking off heads but digging up truth," he cautioned.

Nope, they are being destroyed because of their lies or deceit, and (will they never learn) exaggerations that reflect badly on our troops.
Such as comments that so called torture at Abu Ghraib was a high level Administration policy.

<<<<"The salivating morons who make up the lynch mob prevail," he lamented online after Mr. Jordan's resignation. He said that Mr. Jordan cared deeply about the reporters he had sent into battle and was "haunted by the fact that not all of them came back."

And so Jordon is at least human, and is now more aware of the feelings of the relatives of 911 victims and of soldiers who lost their buddies.
How fortunate he is that he still lives in the US and can enjoy the safety provided by soldiers who courageously go into combat and fight the enemy while hampered by curious bystanders who purposely place themselves in harms way for money and glory.
