"NBC's "Today" show aired unsubstantiated claims on Tuesday that U.S. troops had desecrated the Quran on at least two occasions, in a report that echoed a now retracted Newsweek story that has inflamed the Muslim world and led to deadly riots.

The "Today" broadcast also covered an allegation that U.S. troops had gang-raped an Iraqi woman."

I heard that on the Laura Ingraham show. How do they sleep at night? Reporters has stooped to the lowest of all lows! There is no truth in journalism. Rumors and anti-Americanism rules the day. So sad!
