1. Michael Ware's a professional
I respect what he has to say until I'm shown otherwise. Just can't figure out why the CM uses him; he isn't a corporate-boot-licking, sending-reports-from-the-green-zone kind of journalist.

7. He tells it like it is

He's the real deal. Too bad there aren't many
like him.

10. Did you use the word "professional"? That's a coded insult for
"articulate".

5. Do you mean the war correspondent on CNN? If so, that guy is awesome.
I watched Anderson Cooper's interview with him the other night and I was mesmerized by him. He just tells it like it is and is one brave guy. I have alot of respect for him.

14. Yes. And he just seemed to speak the truth which is rare in journalists
these days. CNN has a great correspondent on their staff - I hope they don't ever expect him to compromise his integrity.

8. Michael Ware and Christiane Amanpour are the only reason
I have not blocked CNN on my cable as I have done to Faux. It is surreal when CNN goes to Michael Ware to report the real situation in Iraq after they just had Wolfie sucking up to the bush cabal and regurgitating the lies from the Pentagon/bush cabal.

11. Michael Ware, Christiane Amanpour and Lara Logan.
The three best journalists in the MSM right now. They put their lives at risk to bring us the truth. Each is a credit to the profession.

Their sexy accents don't hurt, either. ;)
