Sorry for the Fox link, but you have to hand it to them: they are often first with these reports when news breaks late at night.

1. More & more all the time - while bush campaigns

as far as FAUX - I'm sure they fit in a "good news" story to fit right in with the dead soldiers.

2. Props to Fox, I'm afraid

They're always working harder than CNN, especially nights and weekends-- which makes it all the more bizarre for CNN to try to out-Fox Fox.

Fox's "secret?" Do every show like a sports show. Can CNN even figure that out? Apparently NOT.

:crazy:

3. They've got to have some selling point

It's not as if anybody cares about their opinion. If they can get fact out there faster, terrific. They have some redeeming quality, then.

9. Actually, this report tells of two US combat deaths

...and tries to maintain the fiction that death by land mine could be something other than a combat death in the circumstances described.

The spin, the spin.....

7. BBC two dead

Two US soldiers killed in Iraq


Two American soldiers have been killed in separate incidents in Iraq.
US officials said opposition forces attacked a convoy in Mahmudiya, south of Baghdad, on Wednesday night killing one soldier and wounding two more.

The second was killed when his truck hit a land mine near a border crossing with Syria on Thursday morning.

The deaths bring to 140 the number of US troops killed by hostile fire since President George Bush declared an end to combat on 1 May

10. We need to start our own count from the pResidents 'Bring'em On'

12. BRING EM ON

Disgusting ---I wonder how many more today??

11. THE SCORE IN THE BOTTOM OF THE FIRST

Before their war was won = 138, After their mission accomplished = 266 more, Total young land of the free and home of the brave heroes just following orders = 404 (not counting dying wounded and so called private contract soldiers). Iraqi men, women, and children evil doers massacred = Nobody is saying. Those seeking vengeance for sake of family and invaded homeland honor = most. Years for Viet Cong to come together = several. Time for Iraqi resistance to build = damned near immediate. Have a nice day.:)
