Guest Guest Posted January 29, 2006 i think he will be allright, as condition is described as serious instead of critical. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canadian Paul 97 Posted January 29, 2006 Hmm... too early to tell how it will turn out I think... there's just not enough information really, and who knows how they're trying to spin the story? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harvester Of Souls 40 Posted January 29, 2006 omg i hope hes ok i watch him every night on the tellie..he has kids and everything! You'd think the words 'War Zone' would activate a little grey matter in the mothers and fathers of the world... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest iain Posted January 29, 2006 Out of surgery, in stable condition but theyre also saying 'the next few days will be critical' for him so its still quite worrying Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canadian Paul 97 Posted January 30, 2006 Out of surgery, in stable condition but theyre also saying 'the next few days will be critical' for him so its still quite worrying Agreed. It's just too early to tell. Although I think it's not of that much interest to DL. He wouldn't really pass the UK fame test and if he lives to 2007, chances are he'll be living a lot longer.

Star Crossed 33 Posted January 30, 2006 Maybe it's the curse of Elizabeth Vargas, his co-anchor on ABC news. She's married to Marc Cohn (of "Walking In Memphis" fame), who was shot in the head not too long ago as he left a gig. Perhaps she's the Jessica Fletcher of the broadcast news world? I presume his kevlar helmet-hair deflected most of the shrapnel, saving him from certain death. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phantom 2,550 Posted January 30, 2006 A similar thing happened with Kevin Kegan when burglars broke into his caravan and he was whacked over the head a few times by baseball bats. Surgeons were surprised that he survived the attack but state he would have died if it wasn't for his bubble perm cushioning the blows Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
