No offense to Beatles fans, but its sad that the media spent (and is still spending) much more time on Harrison's death then to tell us about this american hero's life.

You are so right except for one thing -- I don't give a clinton about offending Beatles fans.

The disgusting liberal media have fouled the airwaves with talk of Harrison. Who cares? Spann was a hero who gave his all for this country. We should be celebrating his bravery.

Well, the Beatles fans can go rot. Their world revolves around something very inconsequential, compared to this.

Here's a MAN who gave his life defending his country. May he rest in peace, and may God have mercy on his soul.

Such a discrace by the liberal/socialist media. God Bless the American heros!

No mystery. The Beatles, especially John Lennon with his simpering "Imagine" have been and always will be more important to those yuppie media bastards than a genuine, military/government hero who deserves any and all honors we bestow upon him.

Yet the media had no problems blabbling his death before it was confirmed.
 

From Nov. 29, 2001

              Spann's father blasted the news media for reporting his son's
              death before it had been confirmed by the government, saying
              that if his son were still alive at the time, such reports put his life
              in jeopardy.

              "I don't have to tell you that I probably feel a little angry about
              that," he said. "I really think the (news media) in America ought
              to think about that and when something like this happens again
              they ought to consider what they do and what they say before
              they do it."
