Army cuts off information to Daily Oklahoman over My Lai probe
The Army will no longer answer telephone queries from The Daily Oklahoman, directing requests to be written.

The action follows a prior disclosure of a separate war crimes probe and complaints about delayed responses. The debate centers on public access to government information and press freedom.
