Guardian Unlimited | Special reports | New Orleans media ban overturned: "The US authorities have overturned a ban on journalists following the rescue efforts in New Orleans after a legal challenge from CNN.
But they are refusing to allow photographers to accompany boat and helicopter rescue missions aimed at recovering bodies from flooded homes.
CNN issued legal proceedings against the Federal Emergency Management Agency after officials said there would be 'zero access' to the recovery operation.
The district court judge, Keith Ellison, issued a temporary restraining order on Friday against the so-called 'zero access' policy."
