Several journalists were reported killed today by RedTide Sources for alleged treason, although non of the press reporters were from RedTide2. No bodies have been returned and there is no confirmation, but speculation is fearing they are Kanami Journalists. No comment was available from the RedTide Government.

OOC: Those were not journalists... they were militiamen.
IC:Official Statement from Red Tide Goverment
"Even though numerous foolish reporters have been interned and their equipment confiscated(as per a previous CDRT Statement), we are investigating this 'claim' that reporters have been shot, likely, they were accidently gunned down in a firefight between CDRT troops and Corona Island terrorists. Even more likely, it is simply vicious propaganda put out by the illegitimate regime currently ruling Kanami.
We would like to take this opportunity to remind all press, INCLUDING Red Tidean news services, are currently forbidden on Corona Island. The CDRT-A(Corporate Dictatorship of Red Tide Army) will intern any reporters found for the duration of the conflict and confiscate any equipment carried by said reporters permenantly."
