New York Times Reporter Tom Brady managed to slip past Damascus airport officials, who did not know that he had been blacklisted in Syria. But when he phoned his first story to Lebanon, three plainclothesmen showed up at his hotel and dragged him off to jail. In Amman, NBC Correspondent Robert Conley was picked up by Jordanian troops, who accused him of taking pictures -even though he had no camera.

But McLendon won't stop there. Aware that "teenage slang changes by the week," and that the hippies love to slip innuendoes past the censors, McLendon is appointing an "informal jury" of consultants. It will have to include, he thinks, an ex-prostitute and an ex-addict to catch all the nuances...
