Jennings & Wallace, reporters first, Americans second

Uploaded by bandit36 on Jul 10, 2006
This video was obtained from NewsBusters.org. In it you see Peter Jennings and Mike Wallace state that they would not warn American troops of an impending ambush because they serve a higher calling as reporters. This is followed by a Marine Corps Colonel squaring them away.

You've gotta love soldiers, who live and die by the ethics of their profession, disrespecting reporters, whose job is as essential to American freedom as that of any man or woman in uniform, cleaving to the ethics of theirs.
A reporter's job is to tell the truth to the people, so we can make intelligent decisions about the running of our country. They can't do that if they alter the stories they cover. That would be like a butcher putting his thumb on the scale.

perfect analogy, wish the moderater had been so astute.

Reality check: people like Mike Wallace do NOT have children in the military- and they do not give a rat's ass for people who do.

Jennings wasn't an American to begin with he only worked in America. Wallace suffered from Bi-Polar episodes and has never been a mentally stable person so you've got to expect an irrational answer from an irrational person such as he was.

I think Mike Wallace is full of crap. They should of altered the question and said, what if one of those soldiers was your son? I bet Mr. Wallace may change his mind.

A journalist's job is to report accurately and without bias. If he fails then he is not a good journalist. Impartiality is essential to good journalism. "Just the facts" - let the reader judge the facts free of propaganda.

Mike Wallace is typical of the shallow media elite in the United States. They hate the United States and they despise the United States military. Wallace and Jennings are traitors and cowards.

MORON CHECK. For all you soft-headed patriots out there, commenting on the couch, and saying you'd be a Rambo, think again. First off, you have NO IDEA what you're talking about. War-reporters do this kind of stuff all the time. They report the war – good and bad. That's their job and THAT'S THEIR POWER. You muzzle or censor a reporter and you OPEN THE DOOR to atrocities and evil on the level of Hitler's Germany. Shame on you stupid, closed-minded Rambos. Watching too many movies, for sure!
