LAURA THE WAR WHORE

Crooks & Liars has a clip of the bitch being taken down a notch by James Carville over her criticism of the Iraq reporting.

Here's part of a report of the number of journalists killed so far covering Fredo's War:

JOURNALISTS KILLED ON DUTY: 67*

Here is a statistical analysis of journalists killed in Iraq since hostilities began in March 2003, as compiled by the Committee to Protect Journalists. CPJ considers a journalist to be killed on duty if the person died as a result of a hostile action—such as reprisal for his or her work, or crossfire while carrying out a dangerous assignment. CPJ does not include journalists killed in accidents, such as car or plane crashes, unless the crash was caused by aggressive human action (for example, if a plane were shot down or a car crashed trying to avoid gunfire). Nor does CPJ include journalists who died of health ailments.

* In addition, CPJ keeps a separate tally of media support workers who have been killed. That number stands at 24.
