Michael Kelly- editor at large for Atlantic Monthly and columnist for the Washington Post was travelling with the third infantry division when he was killed in humvee accident. His syndicated column appeared in the Union Leader.
It's been more than two weeks since the war began. The reports continue to come in from embedded journalists.

Reaction has been strong to the War in Iraq and our coverage. We thought we'd share a few of these views regarding a Friday Edition we aired on March 23rd following the start of the war. Norma Kevin and Jeff you were on that program. We talked about the war coverage and also the the labeling of military operations with terminology like "shock and awe", and "decaptitation." We got feedback from viewers both positive and negative.

We start with a letter from one of our viewers from Bedford who wrote.
"Neither did any of them discuss Saddam Hussein's bloody reign nor his blatant refusal to comply with U.N. mandates for 12 years. People like Norma have to be the darlings of the intelligentsia in Hanover and Durham but she hasn't any idea of the average American."

From a viewer in Wolfeboro Falls we received this email.
I am really greatful for the alternative, courageous exploration of pieces of the war in Iraq that you people presented. It's refreshing to see that NH journalists can still, at least at this point, stand up for honest reaction.
