AP went with the following headline earlier today:
Military: Only Three Violations at Gitmo
[url]http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20050713/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/guantanamo_abuse_in
vestigation_15[/url]
Then I guess they saw the Aljazeera headline on the story:
Pentagon investigation confirms Gitmo Abuse
http://www.aljazeera.com/cgi-bin/news_service/middle_east_full_story.asp?service_id=9192
After reading Aljazeera then someone at AP must have realized how they were off agenda and changed their headline to:
Military Outlines Cases of Abuse at Gitmo
[url]http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20050713/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/guantanamo_abuse_in

That was after the day shift Liberal Editor took over from the grave shift Liberal Editor.
