Three soldiers died and the Colonel, who yielded to a woman reporter’s entreaty to fire the gun for the camera’s benefit was dismissed from service...

...The press has a responsibility. Be more cautious. I am not asking you to be more careful but you must be more cautious. Are you working for some masters?...
