ABC's Nightline aired video footage tonight from the battle in Fallujah, showing a squad of Marines "pinned down" by sniper fire. But check out the AP video that shows the rest of the story -- see how the Marines calmly, methodically dealt with the sniper and then moved on. (tip via BlackFive) The operative words were, "He's done."
Believe your own eyes: selective editing by ABC left an entirely false impression of this skirmish.
UPDATE: November 16 - more Nightline imbalance.
