The Reporters Without Borders watchdog on Tuesday condemned Egypt's arrest and military trials of journalists and denounced the suspension of a popular television show by a controversial satirist. "This new wave of threats to freedom of information in Egypt is especially disturbing," the group said. "Arbitrary arrests and hauling journalists before military courts constitute a danger to basic freedoms, as do prison terms, even if these are suspended." Egypt's new military-installed authorities have put three Egyptian journalists on trial in military courts since the ouster of Islamist president Mohamed Morsi in July.
