Peter Arnett Fired By NBC

[KSigkid]

Just heard this on the radio, so I'm a little sketchy on the details, however...

Peter Arnett, foreign correspondent for National Geographic Explorer who made much of his reputation as a field reporter in Desert Storm, was fired by NBC either today or yesterday. Seems that he gave an interview with Iraqi television, where he said that the United States effort has failed thus far because of strong Iraqi resistence. I assume there has to be a lot more to this story, but this is all I've heard so far.

I don't remember hearing about such a prominent reporter being fired in this way, this strikes me as a pretty big story. Anyone else heard anything about this?
