But when the government asks media outlets to keep something out of the news for similar reasons, everyone cries censorship...

Huge difference b/t individual citizens and government

True to an extent. But I meant in the same situation...when the government is asking the media not to report when someone has been taken- for those same reasons.
I dont think the NYT would have given the same courtesy if it wasnt their reporter.
Particularly if the Bush Adm. asked. They would have said it was censorship.
