A later barrage of e-mails accused Pearl of working for the Israeli intelligence service Mossad and claimed Pearl would be executed if the group's demands were not met at once. The group also warned other U.S. journalists to leave Pakistan or "be targeted." The affair underscores the dangers journalists have faced in the region since the U.S. launched its war in Afghanistan; eight have been killed...

...Black], Catherine [O’Hara] and John [Lithgow] and all of them, that was their job. My job was coping with it. My whole purpose was to work with what they gave me, with how they interpreted what Mike [White] had written and committed it to flesh and bone, and my job was just to work with that. All I had to do was react to them. So it was actually very simple, and very fun, because each character was so different. It was fun to be able to play with those different kinds of relationships.
