A former ABC News correspondent accused the network of dropping his contract because he refused to go to Iraq and other war zones, and he sought $4.2 million in lost earnings at an employment tribunal Friday.

...

"A lot of people stop doing it when their kids come along," he said. "I stopped doing it a little later than that, when my kids started asking me why I was doing it and I really couldn't come up with a good answer."

How about because it's your JOB, ya kennedy? :rolleyes:

This is what ABC gets for hiring liberals as correspondents - they whine and cry when you ask them to work for a living.

Well, that depends. Does it say if his contract requires him to go to war zones?
Journalists go where the story is. That's their job.

However, as a freelancer, he has a right to pick and choose his assignments, just as the network has a right to use him or not use him.
