News AP & Al Reuters Style

AP and Reuters both report the same way on the video released of two soldiers tortured and murdered in Iraq. Here's the AP:
BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) - An al-Qaida-linked group posted a Web video Tuesday purporting to show the mutilated bodies of two U.S. soldiers, claiming it killed them in revenge for the rape-slaying of a young Iraqi woman by American troops from the same unit.
And here's al-Reuters:
DUBAI (Reuters) - A group led by al Qaeda in Iraq released gruesome footage of two corpses it said were of U.S. soldiers killed in June, and dedicated the video to an Iraqi girl raped and shot dead by U.S. forces.
Obviously from this reporting the soldiers accused of rape and murder have already been found guilty by the AP and Reuters. To bad they don't give as much benifit of the doubt to our soldiers as they do to the terrorists. Oh yeah, to them one man's terrorist is another man freedom fighter.
