We focus on the double standards in the US media when it comes to covering the so-called "war on terror".
From the detention of US journalists vs. their foreign counterparts, to the treatment of detainees held in US prisons, there has been a lack of consistency in what state-side news is reporting, and a lack of confidence in their coverage as a result.
We take a look at Barack Obama, the US President willingness to suppress certain images, and the US media's reticence in even using the word torture.
The Listening Post's Salah Khadr also explores the US media's celebratory coverage of the release of journalist Roxana Saberi from an Iranian prison in May this year, in comparison to their silence about foreign reporters held by the US.
