From Today's MSNBC.com , Andrea Mitchell becomes the story and writes it, too. (Thadeus & Weez strip on Sudan):
Sudanese scuffle symbolic of disregard for own
U.S.-Sudanese disagreement over Darfur region expected to continue

The Sudanese government apologized to U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice after security forces manhandled U.S. officials and reporters traveling with her, including NBC News Andrea Mitchell, during a photo opportunity at the residence of Sudanese President Omar el-Bashir on Thursday.
When Mitchell asked, "Why should the U.S. believe the Sudanese government will stop the killing when the government is still supporting the militia?" Sudanese security guards grabbed her and muscled her out of the room while State Department officials shouted at them to leave her alone.
Rice was outraged by the bullying Sudanese security forces and demanded an apology, which she quickly received.
Mitchell describes the scuffle and how it is symbolic of how the Sudanese government treats not only guests, but its own citizens in what has been described as a policy of genocide supported by the Sudanese government in the Darfur region.
