Fox Crew still missing

I heard about this when I was back in the states...hopefully all is well and they will be released shortly...

Fox News Channel reporter Steve Centanni and freelance cameraman Olaf Wiig are still missing. It has now been more than a week since their kidnapping at gunpoint in Gaza by unknown terrorists. FNC top management, the journalists' families, and Palestinian journalists continue to press for their release.

My opinion: No news is news. So is unchecked terrorist thuggery against Western journalists. The disappearance of Centanni and Wiig is at least as newsworthy as--and far more threatening to our national security than--people falling off cruise ships or getting eaten by alligators or attacked by bees.

Strange how nobody is reporting this...but if some reporter-ette is nabbed in Iraq, its all over the TV and papers.  Guess Mr. Centanni just isn't cute enough to warrant attention from the other news agencies.
