This one is watchable on Firefox or IE. It is Rony Abovitz, who originally blogged this story. He as there, and a eyewitness. It is on O'Reilly. He is quite explicit about Eason saying that "American troops targeted and killed journalists.

Radio blogger, which is my source for these clips, had this to say.
The myopic MSM, always looking to paint themselves as a victim, are lashing out at the blogs. They claim that the conservative blogs are a bloodthirsty, savage, and unrepentant lot. Obviously, they still don't understand the nature of their enemy. They're desperately waging a Quixotic battle with a windmill from the back of an ass.
So, obviously, the left is going to be fighting a rear-guard action for some time, in a futile attempt to postpone the inevitable...the MSM will have to shed their liberal bias, or the blogs will destroy them. They can do it now, adapt to the new environment of the blogosphere, and save their companies, or they can continue to fall on their swords (witness Rather, Mapes, Jordan, etc.) and their companies will be replaced by less biased ones. It's their choice.
