NPR is lovely

So I wake up this morning, and my local news station essentilly quotes a USA Today story about Gracia Burnham, whose husband was killed last week during a hostage rescue mission in the Phillipines.

"They are not men of honor,'' Burnham's wife, Gracia, said Sunday of the kidnappers who took her and her husband from a Philippine island in May 2001.

''They should be treated as common criminals,'' she said with tears in her eyes and her voice trembling as she prepared to board a flight back to the USA from Manila.

But as I'm riding into work today, I'm listening to NPR, and in their story she's just happy to be back in the US of A. No mention of her description of the kidnappers. Interesting.
