>> It's the journalists' fault that they lost their heads.

I have a journalist Facebook friend who, of course, knows lots of journalists. I'm sure of one thing -- journalists don't think it is "journalists' fault," based on the replies to his comments.

You've highlighted the left painting themselves into a corner again, contradicting their core values we've been fed for years.

This "sentiment" that it's their fault for losing their heads, implies it's their responsibility. With Obama getting worse as each day passes, you now have the left advocating personal responsibility.....

Shallow to say the least.....

You should go to N. Korea, Ten! Then you can be a victim of Obama too!

Blame the victims, spare Obama.

Unless you deserted and joined up with the enemy - then he'll trade terrorists for your safe return.

Steve, the sentiment among many people is similar to that of Ted.

It's the journalists' fault that they lost their heads. They should have known the risks of doing their jobs in a dangerous region.


I never said it was their fault. What I said was they knew the dangers and chose to take the risks. Its really amazing to me that you are just now figuring out that the journalists reporting from the ME are risking their lives. And what's worse is that you are trying to make Obama accountable. You are either the worst of the partisans, or rather naive.

Same sentiment given to the Americans held by North Korea. It's their fault they traveled there in the first place.


You do know that one of the Americans arrived in Hanoi, ripped up his visa and screamed he wanted asylum. Clearly, it was Obama's fault.
