This sounds like a trivial, ugly little story, of media infighting. Nothing more. <The Burns accusation places under a cloud every journalist who reported for a "major American newspaper" from Baghdad at the same time Burns did.> One (unnamed) member of a group does something wrong, so the whole group is tainted? Is this part of a pattern (and, if so, where is the evidence of that)? <draw an extra set of crosshairs on Burns' forehead> At worst, Burns was in danger of getting expelled, and losing access. I haven't read any stories about Saddam's police killing Western media people. American soldiers kill them regularly, though. Hard to make much of this, with no name on the accused, no dates.
