He said he was covering and had been in a war zone in the Falklands........(1000 miles away)..... What's the El Salvador thing you want to bring up????
""...But again, look, I mean all of us who are reporters -- and I was a
reporter for 24 years, even, you know -- and I was in El Salvador, and
in the Falkland War in Argentina, and in Northern Ireland, and in the
Middle East. And I did some pretty risky things. I was single and
nobody cared, but you know -- a couple of girlfriends would have been -
'oh, no more free dinners from Bill..."
"I was in a situation one time, in a war zone in Argentina, in the Falklands, where my photographer got run down and then hit his head and was bleeding from the ear on the concrete. And the army was chasing us. I had to make a decision. And I dragged him off, you know, but at the same time, I'm looking around and trying to do my job, but I figure I had to get this guy out of there because that was more important." |
