Outrage of the Day
Wow. Just … wow.
More evidence that whatever the reason—ideology, greed, or competition—the media of the world are objectively on the wrong side. Because for the sake of some pictures, the media rats in this story were willing to witness coalition soldiers killed rather than share their tipoff about a planned attack: Coalition soldiers question news media following roadside bomb. (Hat tip: A Small Victory.)
MOSUL, Iraq - Coalition soldiers questioned two news media cameramen and a reporter after a roadside bomb exploded near a Coalition convoy two kilometers north of Mosul June 3.
The media, who were at the scene prior to the attack, told soldiers at the scene they had received a tip to be at that location prior to the attack and they had witnessed the explosion.
There was minimal damage to a Coalition vehicle, a cracked windshield, and no serious injuries.
3rd Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division soldiers requested the media accompany them to a base camp in Mosul to answer questions as witnesses to the incident. The news media representatives left the base camp in the mid afternoon.
