Two US Journalists Under Trail in North Korea

Another story of two young female US journalists, Laura Ling and Euna Lee, being incarcerated and brought to a shrouded state trial for espionage in North Korea. 

The two journalists' families on US TV assert that their relatives had no intent to venture into North Korea illegally. Yet they were arrested in North Korea for being there without proper travel papers.

Even though currently the two journalists are under trial and their fate is garnering immense media attention, the US government hasn't taken any overt actions to come to the rescue of the US citizens. Perhaps similar to Roxana Saberi's case, there may be negotiating behind closed doors, however, the fate of the journalists is left uncertain and daunting.
