Some people don't get it
Several journalists were killed or wounded in the fighting in Baghdad and predictably the press is up in arms. Al-Jazeera claims they are being specifically targeted and at this morning's CENTCOM briefing, a questioner wanted to know how CENTCOM was going to guarantee the safety of the press. I don't quite know how to say this but: you're in a WAR ZONE, morons. There aren't any guarantees. And you shouldn't be hanging around the streets or on the 15th floor of a hotel in a war zone without the expectation that some harm might ensue.

The top prize for idiocy, however, goes to a clip running on Reuters' raw video feed (click the Hotel Blast link). After you get past the airplane shots, there is someone holding up their baby to look out the window of a Baghdad high rise (maybe even the hotel) and then propping the kid up in an open window ala Michael Jackson.

UPDATE: The video clip is scrolling down the Reuters list - you have to click the More button on the upper left to get to the "Hotel Blast" link.
