I’ve been thinking today about the future, the world of 100 years from now to be specific.
By that time, people will like Michael Yon will be revered figures, their work closely studied by students of a reformed (and therefore legitimate) journalism, while sputtering hacks like Keith Olbermann will be forgotten, known only to specialists who analyze the depravity of early twenty-first century journalism.

I hope you are 100% right. Yon and the other non MSM reporters are the only ones reporting that will match the reports from the people of Iraq and Afghanistan. I think people, years from now, will wonder what was going on that the MSM said one thing, and the non MSM reporters and the Iraqi and Afghan reporters say a completely different thing.
