This is pretty interesting food for thought. Mike Wallace asked Peter Jennings what he would do if he were an embedded reporter with a foreign military, and he realized they were about to ambush US soldiers. Jennings said he would warn the US soldiers, and Wallace was taken aback, saying that as a journalist Jennings should remain detached in such a situation, and Jennings backed down without further disagreement.

Bullshit! Jennings gets off, I guess, because he's really a Canadian citizen, but if a US citizen is a journalist embedded with Middle East terrorists, and he neglects to warn the US military about a plan he discovers that ends up killing lots of US soldiers, he's a traitor and should be tried as such. Citizen first, journalist second. Above and beyond our daily lives and jobs, we have obligations to this country that allows us to live our lives the way we want to. I'm disgusted at Mike Wallace's view on the subject.
