Did CNN Aid The Mumbai Terrorists?

Sometimes we seem to forget that the so-called Third World has indeed crawled into the information age and some of the things we watch on television, the good and bad guys watch as well.

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.

Like CNN gives a shit.

Now, injure a journalist and THAT's a war crime.
