Little Green Foul Balls

Charles Johnson has an awesome blog at Little Green Footballs (one of my daily reads), but I think he's making a bad call by villifying Kevin Sites. Sites is the NBC reporter that shot the infamous video several days ago of a Marine killing a wounded terrorist inside a Fallujah mosque that had been used for days as a fortified bunker.

I wrote in a previous thread that I'd reviewed Sites' own photoblog, and he seems much more like a later day Ernie Pyle trying to accurately explain life in a combat zone to his readers than a left-wing apologist bent on fabricating the news.

But don't take my word for it.


Read some of Ernie Pyle's columns from World War II and then the latest available entry from Sites in Fallujah. They are far more alike than different.

Kevin Sites seems to be one journalist who tries to be objective, and to attack him personally for objectively reporting a tough story does not serve our democracy well.

Note: This thread has been picked up by Instapundit.com. Thanks, Glen.
