Censor? Sure!

From Cursor.org comes a pretty straightforward,- but damning- little piece at the Seattle Post-Intelligencer about the censoring of news from Iraq at all levels of the mainstream media:

I've personally witnessed photographers in Baghdad who have had their cameras either confiscated or smashed by soldiers, who were, of course, acting on orders from their superiors. And no, the journalists weren't trying to photograph something that would jeopardize the security of the soldiers. Even Christiane Amanpour, CNN's top war correspondent, announced on national television that her own network was censuring her journalism.
