ABC News anchor Bob Woodruff seriously injured in Iraq.
 

IED explosion.
He replaced Peter Jennings on ABC's World News Tonight.

The Jennings curse claims it's first victim.

Watch what happens to the next person who tries to fill the legend's shoes.

Looks like they were in in a HumVee and embedded in an Iraqi unit that got hit by an IED. They did have full body armor and headgear on so hopefully they will be ok. They are being treated for head injuries.

Damn this is a shame.

I liked Bob......

I hope Woodruff and Vogt both recover from their injuries.

Since the U.S. invaded Iraq, there have been scores of journalists killed while covering the unrest there. This just underscores how dangerous life remains in Iraq despite the speeches emanating from the White House which try to suggest otherwise.

You mean that the " world is not a safer place " .... :1orglaugh

King George says so... it must be true:1orglaugh

I love in another thread someone says you are more likely to be killed in the US then threw up the _raw_ numbers to "prove" it.:upsidedow

Sad ... Like when they say that Iraqis are better now then when Saddam was in power... :1orglaugh

Now that Saddam was a bully ....

Love that " democracy spreading " .... :1orglaugh

Hope they will be ok

Michael Holmes (CNN) was just asked if it was better now for the average citizen and he said the security is much worse. When they were there previously, he said, there was active nightlife; clubs, restaurants, etc. but now most people are inside before dark. He also said it is much harder for them to get around to cover stories than it was.

Shitty news, hope he's alright!

Mr. President... Are you not alarmed by these events?! Stop sending troops to Iraq. Your so-called war on terrorism is founded on the wrong premise.

No one believes a word Bush has to say anymore. I, for one, am still in shock he graduated from an Ivy League School. I bet it hurt the professors to pass that idiot because his Daddy paid for their leatherbound books.

"embedded" ... I really hate that word!

And that word alone may actually be contributing, in part, to attacks on journalists ... the word "embedded" implies they are somehow part of the military machine as opposed to being outsiders merely doing news reporting.

Problem is that the power is in the hands of people who don't give a shit, as they make $ on the way down.

yes george sure is doing a great job :disgust

What a shame. I swear all I hear are bad things coming from Iraq. You'd think by now, the US gov would have a little control of the siutation. Maybe they don't because they never should have gone in to start.

FUCK GEORGE BUSH ..... thats one person I'll NEVER say RIP.

No, it's only the media making it look bad! They aren't reporting all the "good" things coming out of Iraq:winkwink:

im sorry to hear this about him but thats the risk you take unfortunately

King George has decreed all is well in the land of oil and money..

:winkwink:
