Why has the media stopped reporting on the 3 Americans abducted in Iran?

[Anti Censorship]

About a month ago 3 Americans were abducted by the Iranian government and this was reported for about a few days then all a sudden the reports stopped.

No word from the US government on what were gonna do to get them, no word from the Iranian government no nothing. Whats up with that?

Probably there's no such news coming out of the clearing house. The media don't do reports. They buy wholesales.

Sometimes giving press coverage to a captivity situation only amplifies the situation. It can either give the bad guys the press they so desperately seek to further their cause or make conditions worse for the captives. I am certain that the USA has NOT forgotten these folks who "accidently" crossed the border. No US citizen has ever been forgotten, no matter their transgression.
