"The embedded journalists are in the minority. There are tons of news people there"

Actually, embedded journalists are the vast majority. And
the small number of non-embedded journalists have been
within a few blocks of the hotel in downtown Baghdad by
orders of Saddam. They have, until Wednesday, had their own
private Iraqi minder to make sure they stay put.

And I am not aware of any significant free lance reports
from journalists moving about Iraq.

So what is your point?

"But I just have to see a little more"

Me too. I never said that this was the be all, end all. In
fact, my posts here on SI say that clearly.

All I did was to rebut conflicting info & incredible
comments & such with credible, supportable info.

No more, no less.

"That's all....not that I disbelieve FOX... it's just that...well...they have suffered from "Foot in Mouth" disease a time or two."

Care to substantiate that? I'm not interested in
speculation, opinion, supposition or conjecture. I'm
looking for factually supportable, evidence from a credible
source.
