Why are reporters still giving live reports in Tel-Avi and missiles are headed that way?

You have to be a fricking mentally ill person to stick around. Just watched CBS News and these people are cool as a cucumber reporting from there.

Because none will get through. You got British and us planes in the air now shooting them down.

I personally will not take that chance. All it takes is one or two to get through and you are toast.

War time journalists have big balls, for the most part. They know they’re risking their lives, but they want to be the one on everyone’s tv screens. The reward is worth the risk.

Iran is trying to send strikes into occupied territories, not Tel Aviv

If it's CNN, Wolf is in front of a green screen wearing a tennis ball suit.

Remember the Scud Stud Arthur Kent from the first Gulf war?
"Looks like a scud missile is headed directly for us. I'll stay here to tell you if it hits."

No British apparently.
And frankly, shouldn't be any of ours either.

None of those drones will will actually hit Tel-Aviv. Reports that a 14 year old Jordanian goat herder has already taken out two drones with a slingshot are being reported by Al Jazeera.

They did the same thing in Kiev when Russia was starting the invasion. They have to know things that we don’t to be that calm.

They all want to get the breaking news first. I worked as an IT contractor for particular cable news network a while back. I was called to an executive office to clear a paper jam. I got it out and read the jammed paper. It was an email between execs and the security team explaining how a camera guy died. Some camera guy was trying to get some footage of a skirmish going on in that Syrian/israeli area as part of a reporting team. Everyone on the team were belly first on a hill/dune watching it unfold. Camera guy got up to go get better shots of fighting…they told him to come back, but dude refused. Got too close and was shot dead. They all want that news award and most are idiots.
