Tenyse Williams at the Pentagon

The Pentagon trip was a lot more than I expected. Despite the building being huge, the thing that got my attention was that there was a CVS in the Pentagon. Before we even entered the doors, the security was very strict. These guys carried big guns, and you can tell that they were very serious about their job. Besides that, the first time I walked into the Pentagon it looked liked a big shopping mall. They had everything in there that money can buy. From fast food restaurants to a dentist office.

Despite the mall area, the press conference with a Colonel in Iraq was very moving. He talked about surprisingly, the good things about Iraq. For example, he talked about how they were building schools and how many Iraqis joined the police force. Which is great because these days you don't here any good news coming from Iraq.

After the press conference we had a chance to talk with Luis Martinez who is a producer for ABC, and Bethany Swain who is a camera person for CNN. They talked about how news is picked from their base at the Pentagon and if the network wants to take it or not.
