…war correspondent Joe Galloway who HATED McNamara for what he did. Followed him later in life and never let him forget it.

Other correspondent who REALLY HATED McNamara was David Halberstram who literally followed McNamara when he went on tour pumping his book and got media coverage calling out what a shit McNamara was and what he did.

McNamara couldn’t take it and his book tour was canceled.
