WHY IS THIS A "STORY"?
Iraqi police say a mortar shell has landed in a garden near the Swedish Embassy in central Baghdad.

It caused a loud explosion, but no one was hurt. Police have closed off the area.
I don't know which question to ask first...how big is the war that allows the press to track individual, ineffectual mortar rounds? Or how did stuff like this ever come to be called "coverage"?
