'We thought we were safe... then CNN stepped in!'


www.walesonline.co.uk
A SOUTH Wales couple caught in the Mumbai terror attacks claimed last night that CNN put their lives at risk by broadcasting where they were.

Lynne and Kenneth Shaw, of Penarth, warned that terrorists were listening in to the media to pinpoint Western victims.

Mrs Shaw claimed the American cable TV channel had broadcast details of where they were at the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel.

She has appealed to the media to be careful with the information it broadcasts because safety could be compromised and lives lost.

Oh, so when the reporting puts people's lives in danger, then we duck and cover behind the freedom of the press card. But when it comes to delivering honest and accurate reporting about corruption and treason committed by our "elected officials", suddenly the values and importance of freedom of the press no longer apply.

Am I understanding that correctly?
