2 ABC News Journalists Killed In Iraq

They were brown people and Iraqis, though, so they don't really count - which is why the story hasn't been mentioned at all on any of the cable networks or in the major news dailies.

UPDATE: Tiny link on the Washington Post website to the AP story about the two deaths. Nothing from the NY Times, the LA Times, CNN, or Reuters. MSNBC website is down for me, but the cable station is doing lots of b.s. stories about long pregnancies, where to buy the best sunglasses, and the top 10 beaches in America.

SECOND UPDATE: USA Today also links to AP story.

Comments:
reality, one article contained the following:

"Cameraman Alaa Uldeen Aziz, 33, and soundman Saif Laith Yousuf, 26, were returning home from work at the ABC News Baghdad bureau yesterday afternoon when their car was reportedly ambushed and they were killed by unknown assailants..."

"...Aziz and Yousuf were traveling home when they were stopped by two cars full of gunmen and forced to exit their car. The two were unaccounted for overnight and their deaths were confirmed this morning, ABC's Terry McCarthy said..."

In other words, their bodies were found, either with bullet holes in their heads or the bodies were decapitated.

And:

"They are really our eyes and ears in Iraq," McCarthy said of the contribution each made to ABC News."

In other words, they are viewed as spies by al-qaeda and all muslim terror groups fighting to gain control of Iraq.

And:

"Many places in Baghdad are just too dangerous for foreigners to go now, so we have Iraqi camera crews who very bravely go out ... without them we are blind, we cannot see what's going on."

CNN and other nutty liberal media venues won't devote much effort to this story because it presents the muslims as ruthless killers of other muslims. Their blind murderousness destroys any possibility of characterizing them as people fighting for a noble cause.

Admitting the simple truth that the muslim fighters are savages driven by islam-induced prejudice to kill anyone -- muslim or non-muslim -- who tolerates or accepts non-muslims goes beyond their liberal romantic notions about underdogs and why they must love them, no matter how vicious, anti-freedom and brutal they are.
