I have been wondering the same thing....
Maybe the networks have been asked not to speculate..in order to keep everyone "calmer"...
I can't imagine the networks agreeing to being "censored" on anything...especially as "juicy" as death numbers...they usually start off every report about Iraq with the death toll of US troops everyday!!!

I heard yesterday that MS wasn't issuing casualty numbers because the coroner needs to confirm them first.
Which might have been a stall tactic for what you said.
