6. Private & the two pilots walked away

Scarborough on MSNBC keeps inferring it went down near where shots were fired earlier inthe day. Why does that SOB have to try to spin it like that when these copters have been going nonstop for how many days??

9. Yeah, the he kept trying the push the shooting angle

But the pilot that he was speaking to said he hadn't seen anything like what's being reported. That people he rescued were thankful. Makes ya wonder....

10. Typical US media ploy.

We use to laugh at how the US media sensationalized everything. This was thirty years ago! I realize now it was no joke!
