CNN just showed a 'Journalist Walkout'
at a meeting with Powell. They were protesting the accidental shooting of two Arab journalists in Iraq.

6. Yep.....
.....old news.....

Actually occurred about two weeks back.

That's about the right time for the crack US press to pick up on a story, huh?

4. This are the Iraqi journalists that think they have freedom of the press.
Ours knows that the corporations who own the media sold that freedom a long time ago.

7. Better late than never.
The mere fact that this is appearing on CNN is significant. Even in still photos, the image of that walkout was powerful.

Imagine journalists thinking they have some human integrity.

scumbags, of course they never will.

"that rain on my face smells like piss, Mr. Powell! Could you please explain, or would it be too much trouble?"
