I want to brag on Kevin Sites for just a bit. MSNBC just aired his report from Baghdad regarding all the activity in Fallujah, Baghdad, and Samarra. Kevin explained just what had happened in the finest of journalistic tradition. He explained Who, What, When, Where, and How. He made no judgements, and gave complete factual report, good and bad.
Kevin also does well in relating personal interest stories on his blog. I’ve had him linked since almost the beginning. His posts there are hit and miss, as he has to work for a living, often far from internet access. But I believe he has what it takes to be another Ernie Pyle in reporting life in a combat zone for the troops and civilians.
