Notice how LGF Charlie has gone all tearful over the murder of freelance journalist Steven Vincent in Basra (http://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/?entry=16917).
Contrast this with the way he and his minions foamed at the mouth when Italian journalist Giuliana Sgrena managed to escape her Iraqi captors a few months ago. (http://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/?entry=15437).
Could this have anything to do with the fact that Vincent wrote what Charles likes to read, and featured LGF in his blogroll, while Sgrena was a 'Communist' who said things CJ found a little bit uncomfortable? Or is the Lizard King just following the old LGF maxim that only a dead journalist is a good journalist?

You say this as if Guiliana Sgrena wasn't a communist, doing her level best to propagandize against the war.
You also say when Sgrena "managed to escape".
She didn't escape she was ransomed.
It's nice to see that you're still an absolute liar, X. Plus ca change, no?
You're right. I should have said "propagandize for the kidnappers and headchoppers."
Thanks, deranged octopus!
