The article presents views given by the people in a round table conference in "ABC Evening News," about the media coverage of Laos operation. According to Steve Bell the most significant thing about coverage of the Laos operation was their inability to get to the story; the reason is that the military denied them the space available, privileges that have always been part of coverage in Indochina. The way that the American military and the government in Washington D.C. have tried to knock down the stories of Vietnamese reverses in Laos. Most of the information came from South Vietnamese troops.
