HARARE, Zimbabwe (AP) - The government warned representatives of foreign media organizations against "peddling false stories" on security issues, the state media reported Friday.
The government also threatened to clamp down on unlicensed foreign reporters making clandestine visits and said erring reporters should beware of authorities and should "stay away from the security forces" or face action.
State radio and television, Zimbabwe's sole broadcaster, and the daily Herald newspaper, a government mouthpiece, singled out the U.S. network CNN for what it called biased reports on political unrest and the alleged assault and torture of opposition leaders, including Morgan Tsvangirai, leader of the main Movement for Democratic Change.
