MSNBC adds a little 'color' to Kim Sun-Il execution
This is the second time (after Paul Johnson) MSNBC has erroneously claimed Al-Jazeera had identified the insurgent group as being "Al-Qaida-linked".

"Al-Jazeera said the video claimed the execution was carried out by the al-Qaida-linked group calling itself Monotheism and Jihad."

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5256382/

The Al-Jazeera website claims nothing of the sort:

Getting a little tired of MSNBC filling in the blanks for the Administration... :eyes:

1. Read the title and thought...
like when Time blackened up OJ's face to make him look more threatening?
