No Body to Show:What the Death of Habeas Corpus Means to the Press
http://www.onthemedia.org/

No Body to Show
For four years, the Bush Administration has revealed next to nothing about who it’s detaining at Guantanamo Bay. What little we know is the product mostly of habeas corpus petitions filed on behalf of the detainees. This week, Bush signed a bill that eliminates the right of detainees to pursue those petitions. Brooke speaks with Miami Herald reporter Carol Rosenberg about the implications for journalists.
