I'm sorry, but I just can't get into Turner. Given the subject matter, I find him almost shockingly boring. Wilfred Owen would run circles around him with shrapnel in his ass.

I'm probably being too crass. It seems to me a very simple poetry of witness, though. A reporter with linebreaks, who's allowed to leave the green zone. Somehow managing to make such real drama seem forced. Am I missing something?
