Actually many of us have been extremely worried about them. I was afraid that they had simply been forgotten. I'm delighted that Clinton was able to use his diplomacy to get them released. That's important. |

Euna Lee is a friend of a friend and I know a lot of people have been beside themselves with worry. N. Korea is no where I'd wish anyone 12 yrs. of hard labor. |

I had no idea you were connected to this story in that way. I was frightened that they would have been doing hard labor for 12 years and am relieved to learn that they never got sent to the labor camps. |

Peripherally only, but knowing others who are distressed and feeling helpless can be upsetting. Journalists put themselves out there every day to bring us vital information. In return they mostly receive abuse and disdain. My sister covered the war in Beirut, the Aquino elections and Tiananmen square. She was often in danger like these two women but felt hers was a vital calling. I admire these men and women. We couldn't have a free nation without them. |

Beautifully put. In some parts of the world, being a jouranlist can be a very deadly profession. |

I'd love to give the credit for this to Clinton, but I'm pretty sure that all he had to do was show up. This had been pre-negotiated by the Obama team. Good job. |
