Reporter Detained in Turkey for Nearly 3 Days Released

The Wall Street Journal says one of its reporters was detained in Turkey for nearly three days before authorities allowed him to exit the country. Editor Gerard Baker says in a statement Saturday that national security reporter Dion Nissenbaum was prohibited from calling his family, editors, or a lawyer while in custody. A spokesperson says the paper believes Nissenbaum's detention was a related to Turkey's ban on reporting Islamic State terror group videos. He wouldn't comment further. The AP reports a top Turkish official warned journalists earlier this week not to share a video that allegedly shows two Turkish soldiers being burned alive. Nissenbaum tells the Journal he was treated well in a detention facility. (More Turkey stories.)
