They're not real war correspondents but they play them on TV
By Michael Fumento
I've posted an extended version of my article in the current National Review on "The Baghdad Brigade," reporters who pretend they can and are covering the war throughout Iraq from the IZ and hotel rooms in Baghdad. It shows the incredible lengths they go through to show that they really are rough and tough war correspondents when in fact they may as well be covering the war from New York or Washington. It shows why, political bias aside, the media CANNOT properly cover the Iraq war.
(I'm working on other Iraq articles as well, including the main one tentatively titled "Retaking Ramadi.")
