Don't see it as censorship of the news media. No one at the meeting was
prohibited from reporting on it, nor, apparently, was anyone else prevented from recording the meeting and having their own transcript made. Any reporter depending on a government-generated transcript instead of his own recording isn't doing his job. "Sunshine" laws and the like might have been violated in this case, but they always include provisions for security concerns. By definition, information revealing vulnerabilities in defense systems are secret. Who *is* being censored, apparently, is the Navy Commander who spoke... but restriction of active duty servicepeoples' first amendment rights is nothing new. Ron Wanttaja |
