"Clearly repressive regimes have done awful things to their own citizens and citizens of other countries. As an American journalist I feel it is my obligation to point out to Americans, ‘Look, this is the error of judgment our government is making in Guatemala, Central Asia, or elsewhere.’ To do that kind of reporting includes a duty to tell Americans when our government is doing something wrong. Doing something wrong is not only wrong, it is actually making us more vulnerable to attack. Now we are not protected by our policy."
