Anyone hear of 2 CNN employees dead Iraq today

[RamboLiberal]

Heard on local talk radio in Pittsburgh that a driver and a producer for CNN were killed today in Iraq. Didn't see anything yet on CNN site. Are they reporting this on their network?

Bloody damn day again in Iraq!

1. I just did!

But I didn't hear who. I heard Nick Robertson's name mentioned, but I didn't catch whether he was killed or whether he would be reporting on it.

2. I saw it, CNN Headline news

They were Iraqi nationals, that were working for CNN. They were coming back from a news story, (from somewhere) and there cars were attacked by gunmen.

3. Then CNN won't care

They're certainly one of the bloody promoters of this * debacle!

5. Yep, there were actually 3 dead, including the driver.

They actually mentioned the driver, who was an Iraqi. I didn't see anyone else pick it up, so no one else cares either. Who do I hate more the media or *??

It identified the two men as translator-producer Dureid Issa Mohammed and driver Yasser Khateeb.

A CNN cameraman in the second car was grazed in the head by a bullet but was safe, the network said. It said correspondent Michael Holmes was also in the car along with several other people but none of them was hurt.
