good one. Brit just had this on his show and said a toy maker said the hostage looked very much like one of their action figures, Cody. At least FNC got it right (or what I saw).

Technically, they all got it "right," by saying "A picture is on a website that spews Islamic propaganda and official US military sources haven't confirmed authenticity of the website assertions." FoxNews gave essentially that report too.

But to their credit, FoxNews also gave the least equivocal accounting for the story being a hoax. AP and Reuters just quiety remove the false stuff without comment.
