"CNN 'Violated Embed Privilege' With Sniper Video"
By Meghan Mulhern
CNSNews.com Correspondent
November 01, 2006

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "(CNSNews.com) - Being embedded with the U.S. military in Iraq is "a privilege, not a right," and CNN violated that right by airing a video clip showing terrorists sniping at American soldiers in Iraq, a spokesman for Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-Calif.) said Tuesday.

"Mr. Hunter believes that the airing of that video serves as propaganda for the enemy in time of war and does not believe it appropriate for CNN to be broadcasting that material," said Michael Harrison, senior legislative assistant to Hunter.

"It adds nothing to the debate and adds nothing to morale for our troops that are putting their lives at risk and sacrificing time with their families to serve our country," Harrison told Cybercast News Service."
