The reporter picked up and showed that they were given rations. I guess to show how well they are being treated. The 1st POW looked really angry.
I never was able to find any reference to this video again, don't know why. My wife saw it too. This in no way means I think the showing of Allied Prisoners Of War is OK. I have no link.

As I've said Mark, I have no reason to doubt you, so I don't doubt what you've said is true, but I think the fact that we haven't seen anymore of this type thing says that the issue has been addressed. The media I've seen report has made it clear they've been told not to do that, and that they were told going into Iraq not to do this type thing, but that doesn't mean someone didn't get something out.
Geraldo wasn't suppose to show unit positions and tactics by drawing in the desert sand either.
