Description
In the aftermath of the US attacks on Libya, Dave Loyn describes the scenes as all journalists were ordered to leave Libya. Loyn believes this is because the Libyans have had their story told, the pictures shown around the world, and they have no further use for the journalists. Male studio reporter not identified.
