Constraints on the Press at Guantanamo

By Simon Fodden

Today’s Dispatches on CBC Radio includes a four-minute report by Carol Rosenberg on the way in which reporters are treated at “Camp Justice” Guantánamo. Rosenberg is a reporter for the Miami Herald and has more experience covering trials there than anyone.

Now that the trial of Omar Khadr is back in the news — and lest you harbour any illusions that what is going on bears even a scant resemblance to justice — you might like to listen to the portion of the program featuring her. (The full broadcast of Dispatches is available here.)

You might also like to follow Ms. Rosenberg on Twitter @carolrosenberg. She reported via Twitter 15 minutes ago and well ahead of the usual media, that it’s just been agreed to postpone the Khadr trial until October 25.
