People unclear on the concept - Rolling Stone

From Yahoo/Associated Press:
Pentagon says Rolling Stone writer denied embed
The author of the Rolling Stone article that ended the military career of Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the former top commander in Afghanistan, has been denied permission to join U.S. troops fighting in Afghanistan, the Pentagon said Tuesday.

Defense Department spokesman Col. David Lapan told reporters that freelance writer Michael Hastings was rebuffed when he asked to accompany, or "embed," with American forces next month.
Gee... Ya think? What a putz -- he consciously writes that article and then expects to get back into the game. Posted by DaveH at August 10, 2010 3:02 PM | TrackBack
