Calif. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is calling for the release of two California journalists, one of them being the sister of reporter and former "The View" co-host Lisa Ling. Read on for details …   Gov. Schwarzenegger released the following statement about Laura Ling and Euna Lee, who were sentenced to 12 years of labor prison by North Korea's Central Court: "Maria [Shriver] and I were saddened to learn of the sentencing of Laura Ling and Euna Lee. In addition to sending them our deepest thoughts and prayers, California stands ready to offer any resources and assistance the federal government may need to bring these two journalists home safely. Journalism is a vital part of freedom and democracy, and we are all indebted to the men and women who risk their lives around the world to dig beneath the surface to uncover the real stories. We must work to ensure the safety of journalists who search for the truth in parts of the world where the press does not enjoy the freedom it deserves." The Central Court, the highest court of North Korea, held a trial for the two women from Thursday to Monday and convicted them of "committing hostilities against the Korean nation and illegal entry," the New York Times reports.

"The Insider" has obtained a statement from the families of journalists Laura Ling and Euna Lee in response to the news that the two journalists were sentenced to 12 years hard labor for illegal entry into North Korea. "The families of Laura Ling and Euna Lee are shocked and devastated by the outcome their trial," the families said in a statement to "The Insider." "Laura and Euna are journalists who went to the China-North Korea border to do a job. We don't know what really happened on March 17, but if they wandered across the border without permission, we apologize on their behalf and we are certain that they have also apologized." "We believe that the three months they have already spent under arrest with little communication with their families is long enough," they go on to say. "We ask the Government of North Korea to show compassion and grant Laura and Euna clemency and allow them to return home to their families." The two families tell us they are "very concerned about their mental state and well being," adding that they fear that Ling, who suffers from a stomach ulcer, may have her condition "be exacerbated by the drastic sentence." The families also reveal that Lee's 4-year-old daughter has been showing "anguish over the absence of her mother." The Central Court, the highest court of North Korea, held a trial for the two women from Thursday to Monday and convicted them of "committing hostilities against the Korean nation and illegal entry," the New York Times reports.

Oprah has dedicated today's show to her beloved cocker spaniel Sophie, who passed away last month at the age of 13. Sophie had been suffering from kidney failure. It's been an especially hard year for Oprah, pup-wise, as she lost her other dog Gracie in July when she chocked on a plastic ball. Today's show is on puppy mills, and contributor Lisa Ling presents what's said to be a great ? but hard to watch ? documentary on the mills. Oprah's staff decided to surprise her by opening the show with a tribute to Sophie featuring movies and photos. Unfortunately they didn't realize just how emotional it would make her, and they had to stop filming after she completely broke down.

That's so sweet and sad. Clearly Oprah's staff members were well-intentioned. People love their animals differently, but it's pretty clear that Oprah's dogs are her kids. There must be this bittersweet relationship with them, knowing that she'll likely outlive the animals she loves so deeply. I can't blame her for breaking down ? a month isn't long in the grieving process.
