Concerned with the inflammatory statements being made by the leaders of the Taleban and Al-Qaeda network, the Cable News Network on Wednesday said it would review the pre-recorded messages from suspected terrorist Osama bin Laden and his followers before going on air with them.
“CNN will not air statements from the Al-Qaeda and will review them first before deciding how to handle them," the news channel said in a statement.
"CNN's policy is to avoid airing any material that we believe would directly facilitate any terrorist acts," it said.
"In deciding what to air, CNN will consider guidance from appropriate authorities."
