CNN spins Zarqawi memo

HERE'S HOW CNN IS SPINNING the Zarqawi memo mentioned below. Of course, the memo is actually written by a non-Iraqi, about plans to stir up a sectarian war because Iraqis don't want Al Qaeda to drive the U.S. out.

This is an absolutely unforgivable example of either (1) spinning the war into a bogus "quagmire" or (2) sheer inability to report the news accurately even when the "reporting" merely consists of accurately summarizing a story in a headline. (Thanks to the commenter at QandO who provided the link. I've saved screenshots in case it goes away.)

Whoa excellent catch, Pikamax!

As of 11:34am PST, the headline is still there. Take some screenshots, everybody!

Fox news should do a story on this.

It's been changed. It now reads "Document appears to seek al Qaeda help in Iraq."
