As is often the case, it's in the numbers
July 19th, 2005 by Tom Johnson

We appreciate NYTimes reporter SABRINA TAVERNISE's hard work last week reporting — and explaining what was behind the numbers Iraqi civilian deaths in “Data
Shows Rising Toll of Iraqis From Insurgency.”  There's always the
fog of war and all that, but Tavernise surely spent a fair amount of
time on the piece and, at the end of the day, does a good job of
explaining how and why the numbers can vary so much from source to
source and month to month.

Click here for the piece (unless the NYT has already archived it).
