Zarqawi story gets even more exciting

First he was dead. Next day, he was alive but only lasted briefly. Today, the AP headline gives it that extra umph to stretch just a little more drama and squeeze another day out of the dead Zarqawi story: A dying al-Zarqawi tried to get away. (Of course the classic grisly photo is included in the story.) Sounds a lot more exciting and dramatic then "he tried rolling off of the stretcher before dying" which is what the story actually tells us. Fortunately there are enough voices out there in the media who are balancing out what sounds like Pentagon-sponsored hype with the reality that while he was a destructive man, he was a small piece of a big problem.
