AP-baas neemt het op voor Bilal Hussein
Tom Curley, de opperste baas van Associated Press, heeft een column geschreven over het lot van fotograaf Bilal Hussein, die al maanden in een Iraakse gevangenis zit.
Bilal Hussein, an Iraqi photographer who helped the Associated Press win a Pulitzer Prize last year, is now in his sixth month in a U.S. Army prison in Iraq. He doesn't understand why he's there, and neither do his AP colleagues.
The Army says it thinks Bilal has too many contacts among insurgents. He has taken pictures the Army thinks could have been made only with the connivance of insurgents. So Bilal himself must be one, too, or at least a sympathizer.
