"Use of interrogations limited in war-crimes trial; The Guantanamo Bay war crimes tribunal began with a not-guilty plea from Osama bin Laden's driver and some testimony excluded by the judge"

"Use of interrogations limited in war-crimes trial; The Guantanamo Bay war crimes tribunal began with a not-guilty plea from Osama bin Laden's driver and some testimony excluded by the judge": Carol Rosenberg has this article today in The Miami Herald.

Today in The Los Angeles Times, Carol J. Williams reports that "Evidence against terrorism suspect barred at Guantanamo trial; A military judge says some statements by Salim Ahmed Hamdan, a driver for Osama bin Laden, were made in 'highly coercive' settings; It could set a standard for other cases."

The Washington Post contains a front page article headlined "Guantanamo Judge Blocks Use of Some Statements; 'Highly Coercive' Conditions Are Cited."

The New York Times reports that "Military Trial Begins for Guantanamo Detainee."

From National Public Radio, today's broadcast of "Morning Edition" contained an audio segment entitled "First Guantanamo War Crimes Trial Begins" (featuring Carol Rosenberg), while yesterday evening's broadcast of "All Things Considered" contained an audio segment entitled "Expert Weighs In On Guantanamo Trial."

And yesterday evening's broadcast of the PBS program "The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer" contained a segment entitled "Gitmo Trial Begins, but Questions Loom Over Detainee Legal Process" (transcript with links to audio and video) featuring Neal Katyal and Andrew McBride.
