Honestly not much sympathy here. I never heard a vet say they didn't absolutely hate journalist in war, and that journalist didn't at times almost get them killed.

The more the soldiers hate journalists in a warzone the more they are needed. Anyone who thinks differnetly needs their head checked.

Yes none combatants causing combatants to risk their life to save their dumb ass is really needed. Absolutely not. War crimes happen, protocol gets broke. You don't need some bloke with a camera in the way.

You guys just want war crimes to go unseen? Or government propaganda to be the only word on events?

I don't want them there because I would feel responsible for them and it could get me killed.

Should be more "the front lines really aren't a place if the goal is to avoid dying."
