Any news on the western female journalist kidnapped in Baghdad?

Was that a hoax or something?

[Caution]

1. She must not have been young blond and attractive

Otherwise she's be the top story for months.

2. Haven't heard a PEEP about this story.

3. Yes... dKos ID'd her, but then redacted her name...

Here's the C&L post about it:

4. Thanks for the link - that redaction business is pretty strange...

Wonder what's up with that.

5. I've seen 2 different last names

of the alleged victim that were spelled very differently but sound very similar, but the first name were both the same. I've only seen one newspaper mentioned. Everything is unconfirmed so far except for her driver/translator's name.
