I love the 'media'.

OK, I know there is nothing about this situation that is funny, but...

'detonating IUDs' AHAHAHAHAHAHA!! What a mental image....

I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed this blooper..........

Here's another one from Brian Williams and his reporting.....

When the second (boat) shootout happened and the tape was being played his show, BW says something like, "It sounds like the same caliber of guns being used during the first shootout."

Pom,
Glad to know I am not the only one paying attention.

In the week after 9/11, I went to sleep with the TV on.....now, I know better.

WHen the screw up and release information from "unofficial" sources is that it can compromise operations, particularly like what was happening in Bahstin.

The perps are paying attention to the media as well.

The leakers need to be dealt with, but the media needs to go back to journalism school. Thankfully their "leaks" probably didn't cause any additional casualties this time, but the saying "loose lips sink ships" applies to law enforcement operations as well as military.

The media's profits shouldn't override security. They need to go look at what Ernie Pyle and others who covered WW2 did.

Just saw another weirdly worded caption on CNN ~~~~~ Red Sox to take the field after bombing. So the field is going to be bombed, and then they play???? Someone really should read these and make corrections before they get posted for all the world to read............

I was so hoping someone would put a gag order on the media. I have caught enough mice or in this case rats, to know they won't come out until they feel somewhat safe. As soon as they lifted the shelter in house and the police said they would try again the next day, the rat came out.

If they had made the media stop telling every move the police were doing, I think it would have been over sooner. "Well, the police are now going from house to house on such a such block"..... thanks for tiping the rat off on where to stay away from. sheesh

The "rat" was detected after the SIP was lifted because he was in the boat of the backyard of the person who wanted to check things out. The perp was apparently out cold at the time. But I agree about the media shooting (pardon the pun) their mouths off. I got irritated because they couldn't even speak coherently (Wolf Blitzer, I'm talking to YOU!).
