I'd be careful on this point. Yon is over there on his dime. He doesn't have an plush expense account and he is probably the only "journalist" over there that ventures outside the green zone and reflects the good work being done. You certianly won't find that level of work from any of the MSM. If he has to sell the rights to that picture to continue telling the truth about what is really going on over their while the 5th estate is working overtime to cut the legs out from under our servicemen and women who am I to gripe about it? Besides if Yon can't afford to be overthere pictures like this never would have happened in the first place.
