Title: Censoring The Troops
Post by: Barman on March 08, 2010, 03:51:59 PM

Fucking Hell!  cussing:

Quote from: Daily Telegraph

British journalists and TV crews are to be banned from the Afghan front line once a date for the election has been set, while senior officers will be prohibited from making public speeches and talking to reporters...

.....embeds for all British news broadcasters and national journalists will be prohibited during the campaign...

MoD websites will also be ?cleansed? of any ?non-factual? material including anything containing troops? opinions of the war

Not the original source but a good analysis of it here. (http://constantlyfurious.blogspot.com/2010/03/censoring-troops.html)

We collected enough money to get that bloke out of jail in four days...

How much could a revolver and a bottle of whisky (pre budget) be...?  rubschin:
