Peter Arnett's freedom to speak :: Reader comments at Daniel Pipes

Submitted by lucy koteen (United States), Apr 1, 2003 at 09:39

What ever happened to freedom of speech? Arnett just said what everyone else has said but he said it on Iraqi TV. What is the difference. Shame on NBC for not protecting his freedom of speech. Is it only the "embedded" reporters who have the right to speak?
