propositions, very courteous and didn't get any special treatment, as it, as a female journalist but it's interesting how much pros imwe can get to colonel gadhafi. went out in green square and waved to the crowd and all the time just a few centimeters away from him and climbing up on this wall in green square and with him when he got in the car and the security levels were quite interesting, actually, not what you would expect from a head of state or not from a leader in his position at the moment. >> just getting this in from the bbc, cat rip, and let me know if you know anything about it. the bbc is now reporting that three of their journalists in libya were detained and held up by gadhafi forces, beaten up pret pretty goodly. do you know anything about it? >> i have reports.
