Reporters Without Borders accuses US military of deliberately firing at journalists
Topic: Current Events 10:08 am EDT, Apr  9, 2003

] Reporters Without Borders called today on US defense
] secretary Donald Rumsfeld to provide evidence that the
] offices of the pan-Arab TV station Al-Jazeera and the
] Palestine Hotel in Baghdad were not deliberately fired at
] by US forces earlier in the day in attacks that killed
] three journalists.
]
] "We are appalled at what happened because it was known
] that both places contained journalists," said the
] organisation's secretary-general Robert Ménard. "Film
] shot by the French TV station France 3 and descriptions
] by journalists show the neighbourhood was very quiet at
] that hour and that the US tank crew took their time,
] waiting for a couple of minutes and adjusting its gun
] before opening fire."
