So you want to take on journalists, now? Here we come...

CBS News' Lara Logan, her voice cracking, tells it like it is on CNN.

Come on, now they want to take on journalists in Iraq for reporting 'negative stories'?

"When journalists are free to move around this country, then they will be free to report on everything that is going on. As long as you are a prisoner of the terrible security situation here, then that is going to be reflected in your coverage... their own figures show that the reconstruction project was supposed to create 1.5 million Iraqi jobs. To date 77,000 Iraqi government jobs have been created. That should give you an indication of how far they are in terms of reconstruction."
