No FrEEEdom for French Press

Reporters sans frontières is protesting on behalf of some videogame journalists who were detained and deported from Los Angeles as they were en route to report on E3 last week: "Six French journalists detained on arrival at Los Angeles, sent back to France." Journalists who cover videogames would seem to have it easy - gameplaying, junkets, exciting events. But here's a rude bit of geopolitics and paranoia for them to cover. I wonder if they will report on the experience themselves?

Alexandre Alfonsi of Télé 7 Jours, Stéphanie Pic of Télé Poche and Michel Perrot of TV Hebdo, Thierry Falcoz, editor in chief of Game One cable television, and two of his cameramen, Laurent Patureau and Alex Gorsky - I apologize to you on behalf of my government.

From Ben at Serious Games.
