OH, THAT LIBERAL MEDIA:

She worked for four Democratic members of Congress but what does the headline in the Seattle Post Intelligencer say about the accused Iraqi spy?

Accused spy is cousin of Bush staffer

Yep, that's the headline. Absolutely shameless.

UPDATE: Reader Jon Henke emails:

They didn't happen to mention that she'd also worked for the Seattle Post-Intelligencer until the second paragraph. Presumably, her distant relation to a guy who works for Bush is more important than what she's actually dirtied her hands at.

Dirtied, indeed.

ANOTHER UPDATE: More here: "Card turns in someone who is remotely related to him; the press reports the relationship but downplays the fact that he helped catch her."

MORE: Alternative headline here. I'm guessing we won't be seeing that one much.
