...been coming to all the pretrial hearings and we were never told there was going to be a different system for the trial. We were told the press will be allowed," Ayesha Tanzeem, a journalist with Voice of America Urdu said. After TIME made inquiries on Thursday, individuals in the overflow room, including the Pakistani journalists, were for the first time ushered into the main courtroom during the afternoon session. But with the exception of a BBC Urdu reporter and a Samaa TV reporter who received official passes, none have been granted a press credential that would guarantee them...
...context of the historic lightheartedness of the Golden Globes, which had its original journalist-presenter format hijacked in 1958 when the whiskey-toting Rat Pack rushed the stage and took over the show, the break in levity this year came as something as a surprise. Political statements are associated more with the Academy Awards. Sure, funny things still happened. (Ryan Bingham completely missing his Best Song award while buying drinks at the bar comes to mind.)

When Fabrizio Gatti, a journalist for the Italian newsweekly L'Espresso, posed as a migrant worker in 2006, he uncovered a world where beatings were common and exploitation was rife. "You have no contract - no rights," Gatti says. "So if they don't pay you, you cannot go to the police...
...signed by Blair, that asserted "beyond doubt" that Saddam possessed WMDs. The dossier also suggested that missiles could be launched within 45 minutes. Campbell told the inquiry that British media sensationalized coverage of the dossier, focusing on the 45-minute claim and implying British targets. But in 2003 the journalist Andrew Gilligan, who worked for the BBC, said Campbell had "sexed up" the dossier. The source for his report was a government weapons expert, David Kelly, who killed himself during the ensuing bitter row between Downing Street...
