The co-anchor of ABC nightly news and his camera man has been seriously
injured in Iraq:

ABC news anchor Bob Woodruff and camera operator Doug Vogt were seriously
injured in a roadside bombing in Iraq on Sunday, the U.S. television network
said.

At the time of the blast, they were traveling with an Iraqi Army unit in
an Iraqi vehicle near Taji, near Baghdad, the network said. After the blast,
the vehicle came under small arms fire, ABC news reported.

“Bob and Doug are in serious condition and are being treated at a U.S.
military hospital in Iraq,” the network said in a statement.

Both men have head injuries and are being treated in Iraq, the network
reported.

The men were injured by an improvised explosive device, or IED, which are
often planted by insurgents on roads to attack U.S. vehicles.

Keep Bob and his camera man in your thoughts. Sadly this is the highest
profile journalist that has been injured in the war. It also proves Iraq is not
the safe place that it is made out to be. According to ABC this attack occurred
right outside the green zone.
