LONGWORTH, England — A British scientist was found dead in the woods yesterday after being unwittingly dragged into a fierce political dispute about intelligence used to justify war on Iraq.

So, if I understand this all;
This guy made up a charge that Blair created false information in regards to Iraq. Now that the BBC is on the hot seat due to his lying, he commited suicide.
How exactly does this play badly on Blair and co?
It seems to me this essentially proves the BBC had no *reliable* evidence to make their absurd claims on...this also seems the sort of issue and tack the US media claim to be interested in, no?
