Transcript: Family of Kidnapped Journalist Release Statement

Here is the transcript of a statement from the brother and sister of FOX News correspondent Steve Centanni, who was kidnapped along with FOX News cameraman Olaf Wiig from their TV van near the Palestinian security services headquarters in Gaza City on Monday.


Sad, sad story. Everyone, including Hamas and the Palestinian government, is asking for their release.

Ok I could understand if you take a soldier... but a innocent reporter who wants to update the world on its status.. pathetic... If he doesnt get released well... another massacre is on its way...

I couldn't even understand if you'd take a soldier, but this is worse, yes.

This is sad, but I have to wonder why these reporters are willing to risk them selves like this for a story. you could offer me 100 million dollars, not going to someplace in the middle of a warzone where my coutry of origin, or skin color makes me a target (Just some examples...)

Fox prides itself in being the one news station to cover that region directly, on the ground, from Gaza City. I think it's a good place to report from, though it has its dangers, as we clearly see here.
