The Pentagon and the Press

Look at this quotation. If the New York Times or other mainstream US media really care about freedom of the press, this quotation would suffice to require an investigation and a protest movement. "Asked about questioning about Al Jazeera, a Pentagon spokesman said members of the media “are not targeted by U.S. forces, but there is no special category that gives members of media organizations immunity if captured engaging in suspicious, terror-related activity.” The spokesman added that all detainees were treated humanely while in custody."
