The USA Today is reporting that U.S. Special Forces have been in Afganistan for the past two weeks searching for bin Laden.

Is anyone else bothered by this as much as I am? I'm all in favor of a free press, and I accept that the newspaper has a right to publish this info. But along with this right comes an expectation of responsible reporting. This newspaper has purposely made information public that puts the lives of our people in jeopardy. I can't help but think what the parents of Special Forces personnel must be thinking right now.
Being a strong advocate of freedom of speech, I'm really torn over the this incident. However I firmly believe this kind of reporting is irresponsible and this newspaper has done a disservice to the cause of freedom. What do you think?
