Fucking moron. You would think that with so much experience in the field he would know that journalists need to take an objective approach to everything.

"He went to Iraq this year not as an NBC News reporter but as an employee of ?National Geographic Explorer.? When other NBC reporters left Baghdad for safety reasons, the network began airing his reports."

Brujah · 03-31-2003, 07:48 AM

I had just read his page on the National Geographic site the other day too. A UK newspaper, the guardian, had a report about the incident earlier that indicated NBC and National Geographic both supported Peter Arnett's interview. Maybe they had a change of heart.

When Daniel Pearl was kidnapped, the Al Queda folks claimed that he was CIA. The US and CIA denied it. I bet that the kidnappers were right.

The CIA is the dirtiest bunch of players on the planet. My best friend's father was OSS and CIA, and has a whole slew of stories that if most Americans knew...we'd have another Revolution on our hands.

at least he didnt condemn the meat martket like oprah. hahaha he might have gotten worst! hehe

i think NBC can fire who they want, for what reasons they want especially regarding what can or should be said and in the manner anchors must present themseelf, I havent read all this yet though...

Not my job to dig into it.

People lose their job daily over slightly more trivial things.

Simon-interaid · 03-31-2003, 11:03 AM

These news channels are really complete BS.

Pure propoganda.
I can't stand watching CNN, MSNBC etc.... Its as if they are reporting to a bunch of 5 year old kids for crying out loud.

BBC is by far the best out of all of them.

Fletch XXX · 03-31-2003, 11:04 AM

Ok.

How did he go there, not as an NBC reporter, and they fired him?

He went for National Geographic.

He had already left the network this article said.

heres the last paragraph from the article.

' He went to Iraq this year not as an NBC News reporter but as an employee of ?National Geographic Explorer.? When other NBC reporters left Baghdad for safety reasons, the network began airing his reports.'

maybe they chose to not use him anymore since he seems to be reporting silly things since the 70s, involving claims that we gas people?

hahaha

he should have his pen taken away.

People who work in retail have to sign 'Non COmpete' aggreements, you think that might cover doing interviews for out enemy during war?

title of nbc's story: NBC, MSNBC terminate Arnett

not my wording.

Fletch XXX · 03-31-2003, 11:08 AM

i hear ya. I wasnt posing the question at you directly, simply asking it.

if he didnt even work for them, how did they fire him?

heheh

Brujah · 03-31-2003, 11:09 AM

In the article I linked to, it contains this:

What are you doing in Baghdad; what kind of stories are you looking for?

I wouldn't want to be anywhere else. I like being on a big story.
Thank goodness for National Geographic EXPLORER for making it possible for me to be here. It's deja vu all over again. It seems like a replica of the first gulf war.
I wanted to see the end of the story. Being with EXPLORER allows me to look at some of the people I've known here?at the more human side of the story. EXPLORER has a relationship with MSNBC so I am doing work for them. Then because NBC decided to pull their people out, along with most of the other American media, I am helping NBC with daily coverage.

'I was a civilian economic development
advisor in Vietnam, and was captured by the North Vietnamese communists
in South Vietnam in 1968, and held for over 5 years. I spent 27 months
in solitary confinement, one year in a cage in Cambodia, and one year in
a black box" in Hanoi.
My North Vietnamese captors deliberately
poisoned and murdered a female missionary, a nurse in a leprosarium in
Ban me Thuot, South Vietnam, whom I buried in the jungle near the Cambodian
border. At one time, I was weighing approximately 90 lbs. (My normal weight
is
170 lbs.)
We were Jane Fonda's "war criminals."
When Jane Fonda was in Hanoi, I was asked by the camp communist political
officer if I would be willing to meet with Jane Fonda.
I said yes, for I would like to tell
her about the real treatment we POWs were receiving, which was far different
from the treatment purported by the North Vietnamese, and parroted by Jane
Fonda, as humane and lenient."
Because of this, I spent three days
on a rocky floor on my knees with outstretched arms with a large amount
of steel placed on my hands, and beaten with a bamboo cane till my arms
dipped. I had the opportunity to meet with Jane Fonda for a couple of hours
after I was released. I asked
her if she would be willing to debate
me on TV. She did not answer me.'

nah nothing going on the state controlled tv station of the enemy in a time of war. stupid ass klowns.

and just before they turned around and canned him, this was nbc's position:

Quote:

NBC initially backed Arnett?s interview. ?His impromptu interview with Iraqi TV was done as a professional courtesy and was similar to other interviews he has done with media outlets from around the world,? NBC News spokeswoman Allison Gollust said. ?His remarks were analytical in nature and were not intended to be anything more. His outstanding reporting on the war speaks for itself.?

THE 1960s...
"It was a decade of illusion, in which eager spirits were led by continued prosperity to believe and propagate many Utopian notions: that poverty could be abolished, cruelty and violence legislated out of existance, every freedom infinitely extended and voraciously enjoyed, and some kind of democratic and egalitarian paradise established on earth. The vast and unconsidered expansion of higher education was both a product and accelerator of these illusory forces, pouring on to the scene countless armies of your graduates, who shared these fantastic hopes and set about elbowing aside the obscurantist and authoritarian elders who alone, it was argued, prevented their realization."

I was simply stating, if you say something your boss doesnt like youre gone.

I wasnt comparing the 2 side by side, but folks can dig into things as deep as they need to for their argument.

Fact is, if homie was NOT an employee, and was just a PAID CONTRACTOR for reporting services, they can no logner use him regardless of reason.

And my point about the corporate entities was to show nothing more than if you represent a company, watch what you say.

carry on.

I posted at 3/19

"How the media we'll work during the war:

What you'll about to see is what the govmt wants you to see, not what will happen. Peter Arnett, the well known CNN reporter after the end of the Wolf war said what he was reporting is what he thought it was the reality of the war, when the war ended he saw a different reality, it was too late then.

Peter Arnett is again in Iraq and he'll cover the war. He carries more experience than ever and hopefully him and the foreign reporters that will remain in Iraq will report what the controlled media do not want you to see."

and I was right.

It's about time some guys here to call him antiamerican too.

Peter Arnett, the well known CNN reporter after the end of the Wolf war said what he was reporting is what he thought it was the reality of the war, when the war ended he saw a different reality, it was too late then. Peter Arnett is again in Iraq and he'll cover the war. He carries more experience than ever and hopefully him and the foreign reporters that will remain in Iraq will report what the controlled media do not want you to see." and I was right. It's about time some guys here to call him antiamerican too.
