Where’s that nut with the Dinosaur Media Death Watch Alert when you need him. Seems like these people are alive and well causing calamity all over the world.

[Old Sarge]

For that reason I would appeal to the media to be very careful about what they broadcast.

*snicker*
*chuckle*
*snort*
BWAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!!!!!

You're a funny guy, you should be on BBC-4...

“For that reason I would appeal to the media to be very careful about what they broadcast.”
Well, they were very careful. Your mistake is believing they give a crap about your safety. If you doubt the media sides with the terrorists, you haven’t been paying attention.

[Dilbert San Diego]

Didn’t Geraldo Rivera or some other journalist give away American troop movements during the initial stages of the Iraq war?

Do the news people have any actual judgement about the consequences of what they put on the air?

Surprise, surprise. What is it that people don’t get.

The media don’t give a damn about anything but the “story”. They don’t give a damn about people, America or for that matter Russia or China. They are self absorbed fools who believe their faces on camera or their names in print is proof they are substantial.

Plato said it best...”Wise men talk because they have something to say, fools, because they have to say something.”

[caveat emptor]

We just report the news, folks. We report. You take the consequences.

[ricks_place]

CNN sides with the terrorists! Dang, who don’t know that!

[ConservativeMind]

He’s not a “nut.”

[Sarah Barracuda]

I’m not surprised at the Communist News Network. This is the same network that employs Donna Brazile(YUCK)

[timestax]

Some people at CNNLIES should be FIRED over this!!

“Mr. Judge, I killed Ms. Amanpour because she was putting my life in danger because she wouldn't shut-up.”

[Waco]

CNN= the usual p-ss on the victims approach.

[Sarah Barracuda]

What’s even funnier is that the terrorists watch CNN. I guess they like the slogan “No Bias, No Bull” LOL

[Repeal The 17th]

It is not clear from the story how CNN learned of the couple’s exact location.

[bitterohiogunclinger]

“Do the news people have any actual judgement about the consequences of what they put on the air?”
I believe Heraldo was removed from being an “embedded” reporter over disclosing classified troop locations, but I don't remember the details. As to other news people, well, journalistic responsibility and ethics seem to mean nothing to the majority of MSM reporters. If any CNN reporter did indeed reveal information that jeopardized any ones safety, I hope they are prosecuted both civilly and criminally.

[timestax]

I though their slogan was CNN loves to lie, And it shows!

[SandRat]

Yup,.. it was Whore-all doooH - Rivera and it was in Afghanistan.

[dforest]

Whorealdo drew a picture with a stick in the sand revealing troop locations.

He was sent home as a result.
