Foreign journalists used as human shields outside Gadhafi compound?

Yahoo News  "But reports out of the North African nation now indicate that Libyan officials may actually be using foreign journalists to that end. The regime brought reporters to Gadhafi's compound in Tripoli Sunday night "to effectively use them as human shields," Fox News Channel correspondent Jennifer Griffin reports."

Democrats for Progress reports: FOX Lies (again): CNN crews used as human shields in Libya :
"I just saw Wolf Blitzer ask Nic Robertson if he felt he was being used as a "human shield" and he throughly dispelled that notion as rubbish ."

Jennifer Griffin sticking by report on journalists being used as human shields in Libya  "“They felt that the civilians and journalists had effectively been used as human shields and that was frustrating to them,” said Griffin tonight. “It was a very close call. In fact one official told me that there was a Reuters crew literally on a spot where they were going to drop a missile.”"
