U.S. Journalist Danny Fenster Freed from Burmese Prison
-------------------------------------------------------

In Burma, U.S. journalist Danny Fenster has been released from prison
just three days after he was sentenced to 11 years behind bars by a
military court. The English-language news site he writes for, Frontier
Myanmar, said Fenster has since left Burma. Former U.S. politician and
ambassador to the U.N. Bill Richardson said he negotiated Fenster's
release with Burma's military coup leader.
