Sgrena shooting
As for the tragic killing of the Italian bodyguard who helped negotiate the release of the Italian reporter held hostage, Little Green footballs reminds us Ms. Sgrena was a devoted communist writing for a communist paper.
The killing was sad but the car was speeding. Ms. Sgrena denies this, of course, but did her political sympathies and lack of sympathy to America affect her reporting? Most likely.
