VITAMEDIAS
[Censuras:] Too Painful to Publish? A number of major newspapers refused to run Iraqi pictures of American prisoners of war yesterday, even as several television networks dropped their earlier reticence and aired at least a few seconds of the chilling videotape.
The New York Times, Washington Post, Philadelphia Inquirer, Boston Globe and USA Today were among those declining to run photos from an al-Jazeera videotape of the captives. But the verdict was hardly unanimous, and the POWs stared out from the front pages of the Washington Times and New York Daily News. The Chicago Tribune and Los Angeles Times used photos on inside pages.

New York Stock Exchange Bars Al-Jazeera Reporter: The New York Stock Exchange banned an al Jazeera reporter from its trading floor on Monday, saying it was restricting access to "responsible" networks, as the Arab satellite television channel faces criticism in the United States for its coverage of the war in Iraq.
