Al Gore's Journalist's Held in North Korea

Imagine if Fox News sent two journalists to the Chinese-North Korean border and they got arrested by North Korea border guards. Do you think the MSM would react differently than they have with these 2 journalist from Al Gore's TV station- Current TV?

Now, Al Gore is thinking about going to North Korea to try and get his journalists out. That is exactly what North Korea wants- to gain legitimacy by having a former vice president visit them and grovel to their Supreme Leader. While it may be in the interests of of the two journalists for Al Gore to go there, I don't it is in the best interest of the country that he go to North Korea and grovel.
As an aside, do you think the outpouring of the media would have been different had two male journalists been arrested and sentenced to the 12 years? I think we know the answer to that.
