National News: Six U.S., three Afghan soldiers, and at least one insurgent dead after ambush in Afghanistan
StarTribune/AP: U.S. war dead in 2007: Update the toll
CNN: 6 U.S. troops die in Afghan ambush
Six American forces died Friday in an ambush by Afghani insurgents. The troops were on joint foot patrol rounds with Afghan National Army soldiers. Three Afghan National army soldiers were killed, and at least 11 were injured. One Afghan insurgent was killed in the ambush.
These articles dealed heavily with numbers, relaying information about those killed and injured. Each article mentioned the overall count of those dead in Afghanistan and Iraq. The AP article read very easily even though it was discussing trends year to year and was very number heavy. I have no complaints on the CNN article's use of numbers.
