COMMENTS: Grecian Formula
ABC's lead by Brian Ross was in the form of Coming Attractions. He relayed the message from the Website al-Sahab, "the al-Qaeda propaganda arm" that "the lion, the sheikh Osama bin Laden will have a visual message." His videotape would mark "the blessed anniversary of the Invasion of Manhattan," the latest jargon for the terrorist attacks of September 11th, 2001. Apart from that, Ross' report was thin on details--except for the "curious" picture of bin Laden with a "very dark black beard" replacing the gray look from three years ago. NBC's Pete Williams, too, noted the touchup--and added that the exiled fugitive also "appears to have gained some weight."
