What you don't realize is that CNN broke this story because they are the ones receiving the emails, not the US gov't! All the emails were sent to CNN directly including the ones with the pictures attached. CNN has turned them over to the State Dept.
As much I despise CNN, they are much closer to this story than the other news outlets.

cnn is the only network recognized by the arabs because they remember its coverage of the gulf war. probably never heard of fox or the others. i dont think many of them watch bloomberg tv at 500am est!

Thanks. I didn't know that, but I also don't trust CNN. I changed to FOX News Channel 1.5 years ago when I found out their reporting was much more balanced and truthful. I also don't scream at the TV as much as I used to! :o)

However, CNN said it received an e-mail from those claiming to hold the Wall Street Journal correspondent, saying he had been killed. CNN spokeswoman Christa Robinson said "We did receive an e-mail reporting that Daniel Pearl was killed."
