Is it CNN, or TNN?

The Terrorist News Network, that is...

Violence in Iraq has seen its lowest point since near the start of the war. Stories available on the internet are legion regarding the dramatic decrease in both U.S. and Iraqi civilian deaths in the past two- to three-months. Al Qaeda in Iraq is all but defeated, and locals are turning on them like a pit bull on a burglar that's run out of treats.

So what does CNN lead off with in its top of the hour radio newscast and on its website?

2007 now the deadliest year for U.S. troops in Iraq

Leave it to the good folks at CNN TNN to find a speck of shit in a mountain of roses.

I guess, to them, extremism in the pursuit of an agenda is no vice.
