Newsday Reporter Pens Account of Being Held in Iraqi Prison
Matthew McAllester, the Newsday reporter who along with cameraman Moses Saman and Photographer Molly Bingham, were held in an Iraqi prison for a week, has written an eight chapter description of the ordeal.
"I just needed to share the rising horror I was trying to control, knowing that we were in the depths of a prison known for years to human rights groups as a center of torture and execution. It was part of this feeling of silent togetherness that the five of us would foster over the next days, a feeling that I suspect we will always have."We've read his earlier, abridged accounts and were impressed with the detail and his ability to recall and recount. We suggest you give this much longer version a read as well. [link via Jim Romanesko]
