Media deaths in Iraq mount
Dispatch

By MELANIE GOODFELLOW
Since the beginning of the Iraq conflict, 38 journalists, including writers, camera operators, photographers and producers, have died and one has gone missing.... >>>>

What kind of unfeeling idiots are running our news media, that they should send these untrained civilians off to war to die alone in a far-away land.

Unarmed and unarmored and with no survival training.

What are their follow-up plans?
How do they retrieve the men or their bodies after they are captured.?

If there are 500 total in Iraq, they are taking casualties at 7 times the rate of our military forces.And they haven't killed one Iraqi terrorist that I know of.

It is past time for the government to step in and investigate the Media Giants that are sending these men into harms way to be slaughtered for no useful purpose.
