Petition to free reporters held in North Korea

Two organisations - Reporters Without Borders and the International Women's Media Foundation - have jointly launched a petition for the release of reporters Laura Ling and Euna Lee, who were arrested in North Korea 11 days ago (as I reported here).

The journalists were detained on the Chinese-North Korean border while reporting on the fate of Korean refugees. They have been accused of being spies. You can sign the petition here
