Reaction near and far to the Yost editorial
Tom Tomorrow recaps Knight Ridder's invitation to Pioneer Press opinion writer Mark Yost to come to Baghdad to gain some first-hand experience with what he often writes about:
I invite Mr. Yost to spend a week in our Baghdad bureau, where he can see our Iraqi staff members' toothbrushes lined up in the bathroom because they have no running water at home. I frequently find them camping out in the office overnight because electricity is still only sporadic in their sweltering neighborhoods, despite what I'm sure are the best-intentioned efforts of people like his Marine buddy working on the electrical grid.
CP brings it home (with pictures):
Hopefully, Mr. Yost will not take up the offer to sit at the KR Iraqi desk. As you can plainly see, purple pride is nothing but sniper candy.
The picture really is priceless...
