About 30 journalists rallied in front of Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono's Democratic Party office in Jakarta Saturday to protest a reported assault against a journalist by a Democratic Party official. The protesting journalists say the attack against one of their colleagues is also an assault on press freedom. VOA's Brian Padden reports from Jakarta.
