Iraq - Moqtada Sadr suspends Mehdi Army

Was the original BBC headline but 40 minutes later the BBC changed the headline and story to reverse itself. You can compare the two here. The original is on the left with the changes on the right. The new headline reads the opposite and says "Sadr set to 'rebuild' Mehdi Army".

Then an hour later the story is reversed again.

This headline "Sadr set to 'rebuild' Mehdi Army" now becomes "Sadr 'freezes' militia activities".

Compare the first paragraphs as well. If it wasn't such a serious subject it would be funny.
