Wa Lone, a Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter for @Reuters, is locked up in Myanmar in a tiny, fetid cell with a squat toilet in one corner. Another Reuters colleague, Kyaw Soe Oo, is in the cell next door. Today marks their 500th day in detention. Please share. #FreeWaLoneKyawSoeOo

Reading this excellent report, with Reuters’ distinctive white on black text, took me right back to the morning I sat, engrossed and shocked, in a taxi to work reading @Simondlewis, @slodek, Wa Lone and Kyaw Soe Oo’s devastating piece on the Inn Din Massacre.
