Afghanistan: Media ban on attack coverage is ‘to protect journalists’

RawStory.com Headlines - Tue, 03/02/2010 - 19:00

 Media ban on attack coverage is to protect journalistsThe government of Afghanistan sent out mixed messages on Tuesday about its plans to restrict media coverage of insurgent attacks, at once denying that it was banning live coverage of attacks while defending the plans as being "to protect journalists."

Reuters reported on Monday that Afghanistan "announced a ban on news coverage of Taliban strikes ... saying such coverage only emboldened the Islamist militants."

Reporters would still be allowed to cover insurgent attacks, but only after the fact, and only with permission from the National Directorate of Security, Afghanistan's spy agency.

"No filming will be permitted while attacks are under way, and live broadcasts will be banned even from a distance," Reuters reported.

But on Tuesday, with journalists expressing concerns about the measure, Afghan officials took a softer stance. The Associated Press reported that government officials denied they are planning to ban live coverage, saying they are "developing guidelines, not restrictions, to prevent live footage from aiding fighters at the scene."

Story continues below...google_ad_client = "pub-5155643920455169"; google_ad_slot = "2705912538"; google_ad_width = 300; google_ad_height = 250;

According to Waheed Omar, a spokesman for Afghan President Hamid Karzai, the "guidelines" would be designed to protect journalists during attacks. Omar also said insurgents have been using live broadcasts to give instructions to other fighters, though he did not elaborate how.

"I would not call it restrictions," he said, as quoted at AP.

"Omar's explanation was oblique," writes McClatchy correspondent Dion Nissenbaum. "At the end of the news conference, it was still unclear exactly how and when the new restrictions would go into effect."

Nissenbaum quoted the senior managing editor at the Associated Press, who said: "We believe broad, pre-emptive bans on coverage are inconsistent with a democratic society. ... Experience shows there are many ways to cover important breaking stories without interfering with police or security operations."

Nissenbaum's report suggests that a series of devastating, high-profile attacks in Kabul in recent weeks may be prompting the Afghan government to try to reduce the bad news in the press.

In January, Afghan stations aired live coverage of a three-hour Taliban attack in Kabul. And, last Friday, reporters were on-the-scene outside a Kabul hotel while Afghan security forces were involved in a prolonged gunfight with the last remaining insurgent holed up inside.

During the fighting, Afghan security officials warned journalists gathered in the street that they would have their cameras confiscated if they filmed the ongoing attack.

Colbert’s advice to GOP on the uninsured: F*ck ‘em!

RawStory.com Headlines - Tue, 03/02/2010 - 17:21

 F*ck em!Stephen Colbert presented his late-night audience with an interesting metaphor for health care reform Monday.

Republicans and Democrats are like a husband and wife fighting over whether to have a health care baby. But "you're never going to get pregnant while both of you are in bed with the insurance companies," Colbert said.

After spending a week focusing on the Winter Olympics, Colbert turned his attention to last week's health care summit. "The only way it could have been more boring was if they were curling," he joked.

Comparing the summit to a "seven-hour marriage counseling session," Colbert said that one of the parties -- the GOP -- was "not being emotionally honest" and should fess up and admit it doesn't want a health care baby.

"Don't hide your true feelings, guys, repeat after me: fuck 'em!" Colbert said. "If those 30 million people want health care, let them get a better job or join the Army or go to Canada or eat Flintstones vitamins ... stop faking care-gasms."
