I don't know about you, but with shit like this and this going on every damn day, I think this is just criminal. Guess Iraq isn't sexy anymore.
As discussed in today's Media Menu, the New York Times' Brian Stelter writes about the broadcast news networks redeploying full-time correspondents from Iraq to other regions of the Middle East. Joseph Angotti, a former VP of NBC News, says in the article he "could not recall any other time when all three major broadcast networks lacked correspondents in an active war zone that involved United States forces."
Stelter writes the networks, who would not talk on the record regarding the decision, will "maintain skeleton bureaus in heavily fortified compounds" in Iraq.
