Live from Iraq!!!!

While every major news outlet has featured the injury of their own anchorman, Bob Woodruff and cameraman, Doug Vogt, every evening and every day, we all seem to forget the fallen soldiers, who have given their lives to protect our freedoms.  Yet, the story of the week is Woodruff.  Sure, I have sympathy for the reporter, but the media outlet has gone overboard.

Its wrong.  Pure and simple -- it is an ugly display of disrespect to the fallen soldiers and their families.

Here is an incomplete list of American service members who were killed by hostile fire in Iraq that same week that Woodruff and Vogt were hit. The Pentagon does not release the names of the injured.
