Not to be outdone by Newsweek, CBS gets into the act.

CBS headline on its coverage of Uzbekistan:



U.S. Ally Fires On Its People



Of course, the fact that Uzbekistan is a U.S. ally has a bearing on this story like a snowstorm in Siberia has a bearing on whether the Twins game will be cancelled, or whether "weather concerns" in May really have a bearing on a certain Minnesota majority leader's decision not to visit St. Cloud.

With friends like CBS, who needs France?
