Death threats

Think the story about death threats on Kevin Sites' blog was exaggerated? Anti War Blog has been reading conservative blogs like Little Green Footballs and FreeRepublic, and lists some of the obnoxious comments made there. Like, "Journalists should wear bright orange clothes so the murdering terrorists can see who they don't need to shoot at but can if they want." and "[Beneath a photo of Sites] Kevin Sites - - Next Friendly-Fire Victim"
Harsh words, and a sad state of affairs in America when a journalist doing his job -- reporting what he sees -- can be threatened.
