I was watching CNN and the reporter asked the question re GC and whether CNN would be contravening it by showing Iraqi POWs. He didn't seem to be all that aware of the GC and was somewhat caught out by the US bringing it up in its news conferences.

Surely, networks would have had some sort of planning meeting where the restrictions, pros and cons of all this are determined and the rules of broadcasting the action set? Seems a bit of an oversight in my book?
