NBC Fires Reporter Arnett

Geraldo has been kicked out for violating the terms of his embed agreement, giving away tactical information.

Last night, we saw him drawing detailed plans in the sand; apparently, CentCom didn't think it was too entertaining...


Yeah, I saw him do it last nite........I thought it was kind of a strange thing to do.....like he was some kind of military authority...... but I didn't think of the tactical implications.

I am not sure how it happens but with some of these guys, their self importance begins to supercede the war itself. I still can't imagine what possessed Arnett to say what he did.

And I can't imagine FOX is any happier over the Geraldo incident than NBC is over Arnett. Again, I don't know Arnett but Geraldo seems to stick his foot in his mouth on a regular basis.

Too bad, I thought he was a good war reporter.
