"Thanks Peter Arnett, we are proud to have you on our team," said VTM news anchor Dany Verstraeten after Arnett finished his first report from the Iraqi capital.
Arnett apologized for his "misjudgment" but told VTM in his first report that he was a "casualty of the information war."
"There are two wars taking place, Dany. You have the war of bullets and bombs, then you have the information war," he said.
He complained he was making "just obvious statements" about the war that should not have backfired the way it did.
"This caused a firestorm in America. I was called a traitor," he said, adding NBC "left me crash and burn" by firing him.
