Iraqi Press Under Attack

There have been a few cases of Iraqi reporters being treated, well, badly:

A photographer for a Baghdad newspaper says Iraqi police beat and detained him for snapping pictures of long lines at gas stations. A reporter for another local paper received an invitation from Iraqi police to cover their graduation ceremony and ended up receiving death threats from the recruits. A local TV reporter says she’s lost count of how many times Iraqi authorities have confiscated her cameras and smashed her tapes.

Most incidents appear to involve the police.

    I didnt realize American police officers had been doing the training in Iraq. Sounds like they have taught them to start off a police state and the avoid the shock to the public later.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
