Then the question can be "are journalists allowed to report on accusations of war crimes"?
The answer is the same: it depends who is being accused. Are they the US empire or vassal state? Expect to be publicly vilified at best. Are they a non-aligned state? Expect cheers and a bunch of primetime cable news interviews.
