US Journalists in Baghdad, Iraq

Factual Questions
1

How is it that US Journalists can be in Baghdad right now? I know it’s not the safest place to be, but do they have some sort of diplomatic immunity? Is this a function of the Geneva Convention?

If Iraq (or any other country) were invading mainland USA, would their journalists be afforded this same courtesy? Or would this violate John Ashcroft’s principles? Would there be a double standard regarding this?:confused:

2

Because Iraq wants them there. As soon as they don’t want them there, they’ll kick them out. Or worse… did they find those three Newsday reporters yet?

Which is exactly what they did to the CNN team.
