--- A late post, but

--- A late post, but I'm absolutely repulsed and won't be able to sleep
until I've vented. We have another candidate for the Sicko Award, which you'll
remember is for depraved acts of humanity and you need not even be
Slobodan Milosevic to earn it. All you really need is the absolute
assurance that you're doing the right thing by humanity. Today's
candidate is a reporter for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation
named Gina Wilkinson. Ms. Wilkinson when reporting on the dangers of
unexploded ordanance in Baghdad left by Saddam's army, actually
prompted children to walk around the unexploded missiles for better
footage. And when that footage wasn't good enough, she asked them for a second take.

Don't take my word for it. Go here
and watch the unedited footage where she prays aloud that the missile
doesn't go off while there are kids underneath it. You'll need RealOne
Player to view it. Windows Media didn't like it very much and refused
to play it. I can't say that I blame it, but thankfully Real One has
scruples and knows this footage needs to get out.
