One of these things is not like the other

Take a look at this headline from Reuters:

FBI memo reports Guantanamo guards flushing Koran

Now look at the lead:

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - An FBI agent wrote in a 2002 document made public on Wednesday that a detainee held at the U.S. naval base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, had accused American jailers there of flushing the Koran down a toilet.

Perhaps Reuters had to pare down the headline for space. Here it is again with the missing words reinserted:

FBI memo reports Guantanamo [detainee accusation of] guards flushing Koran

That's better.

AP did better on this one with the headline "FBI Records Cite Quran Abuse Allegations"--which at least uses the word "allegations."
