Disgusting media dogs. Trying to get sympathy for such a monster is really the end. Saddam's sorry he got caught, and that pretty much sums it up.
It'll be interesting to see how the Iraqis handle this dirty kind of free press over the years.
It will be messy, to be sure. But possibly living under a dictatorship has imbued them with the necessary cynicism to take what the press has to say with a grain of salt.
