CNN Employees Killed in Iraq

Yet more deaths - beyond the recent American soldiers dead and missing in Iraq and the Canadian troop member killed in Afghanistan: 2 young CNN employees (a producer and a translater, both in their 20s) were killed from multiple gunshots sustained while they were in transit by car outside Baghdad.

One would hope this might make CNN rethink spewing the company line about how much better Iraq is becoming. And if we're losing soldiers and journalists like this, does it make you wonder how many Iraqis die each day? Unfortunately, the Defense Dept is not tracking them. Too difficult logistically, they say.
