plutherusNow, this one was interesting. The last line in the article from The Guardian was "William Branigin writes for the Washington Post"
So, I went to check out exactly what he had written in the Washington Post, and found this article:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A4631-2003Apr1.html
Same reporter, in the Guardian, however, covered the story like this:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/international/story/0,3604,927733,00.html
Interestingly, it's perfectly possible that the facts in both stories are completely true, a lot of the facts are the same between the two stories, but there's a hell of a lot of difference in what is emphasized in each.
