Just damn. A cameraman looks an awful lot like a guy holding an anti-tank weapon.

I have a hard time feeling sorry for a self-centered cameraman that points anything that looks like a weapon while in a war zone and then gets shot.

"Media" (especially left-wing) are out to prove and support an agenda. . .in other words, they are out for themselves.

I grieve the loss of every soldiers life. I do not grieve for media.

Soldiers are doing their duty, serving in a cause greater themselves and willing to put their lives at risk while doing so.

Media, on the other hand, are serving the false god of ratings, and the paychecks higher ratings demand (and get).

In addition, media think that bullets, bombs and missiles will somehow miss them when they walk through an active battle. "I'm media, I'm protected by the sacred First Amendment. . .what do you mean Sandland doesn't have a First Amendment. . .I'm media and it travels with me!" Right.

Where are the Ernie Pyles?

All we have are blowed-dried, tele-promter reading puff-balls that whine if the war doesn't immediatley recognize them as independent media, you know, "I'm here to report both sides, equal time, and in fact, more time for the enemy."

Piffle.

As Seinfeld used to say: That's a shame.

That was the first thing I thought when I heard this sorry.

Last footage from the cameraman. This gives an you an idea of how far away he was and how clear a view the soldier had (or didn't have).

The cameraman and what the soldier thinks he sees.

No surprise that he was mistaken for the enemy. Very unfortunate.
