AP: Mohammed Cartoons Too Offensive; Dead Soldier Pic Not So Much…

The Associated Press decides that pictures of dying US Marines are peachy and compelling to print–even against the wishes of the family. Remember back in 2006, when the AP said that the Danish cartoons of Mohammed were “too offensive……

JusDreamin’ – Thank you, sir, for raising such a patriot – he has learned that sacrificing for freedom is the highest calling. As a retired AF Vet married to an in-country (boots on the ground Vietnam vet, now retired AF)vet, we salute you and your family and will pray for your son’s safekeeping. It is so hard to ignore the crap we vets get in the media, especially horrible anti-war propoganda photos. I am beyond disgusted with the AP.

The reporter signed an agreement. The reporter transgressed the agreement.

So much for “protection of sources” and the irony of reporters going to jail to maintain the value of sources is just so much window dressing now.

Slimeballs.

Before being called that, they should be termed America-hating cowards.

That is all they are.

JusDreamin, and a pat on the back to you sir. That future Marine probably has a strong foundation. May he be safe.

Thank you, and the prayers are most welcome!
John, my Son is planning an engineering degree as a matter of fact. He will be heading to Pensacola for a year of aviation after combat training, and is looking for every opportunity for education now and in the future. I could not possibly be more proud of him, and all of our men and women in uniform for that matter.
That is the reason this thread strikes a chord with me. We owe a debt that cannot possibly be paid, yet the AP chooses this. I am saddened, but more determined than ever to do what I can to support these young men and women in every way possible.

And you have every reason to be proud. Freedom, even for scum in the AP, was defended only through the blood sacrifice of soldiers, like your son, throughout our history. This is why I consider the decision of the AP so elitist, cruel, selfish, even traitorous. These people have no class or respect.

He will be a much better person for his service in the military. I worked with many active duty and retired military in my 43 year long engineering career–their excellence shines through in their lives and their work.

My oldest has just 4 weeks left of basic training at MCRD San Diego. He just missed an NROTC scholorship, but was accepted to 3 major universities. I told him we would find a way to pay for his college.
“No Dad, I made a commitment and I want to serve”
This is what our armed forces are made of. I am a very proud father as you all can imagine.

And this is the way the MSM treats the family of a fallen Marine?, this is how the left treats our young men and women?
As the parent of a soon-to-be-Marine, let me quote sbw999

AP Wire insults heroic Marine…

The Associated with terrorists Press has committed a serious foul in their handling of the case of a dying Marine by publishing a photo without permission (Hat tip: Blackfive and Michelle Malkin):…

Phuck all these disgusting pieces of trash in the msm. The next time a journalist gets blown up in Iraq or Afghanistan, I demand that a picture be taken and published around the world so we can “explore the grim reality” of journalists in war. From the NYT publishing national security secrets to garbage like this, the media are at war with their country, using our brave soldiers as propaganda to further their agenda. This is beyond sick and just makes me downright angry.

Thank God for the brave military men and women who defend and protect us. They knew when they signed up that death, disability, and disfigurement could be in their futures.

They certainly didn’t sign up so some silly bimbo trying to play “journalist” could take their picture when dying so her organization could gain “news value” from his death.

My hate for AP has gone from simmering to visceral.
