CNN segment on Bin Laden ignored Bush's reported failure to heed CIA call for more troops at Tora Bora

SUMMARY: A CNN report on the search for Osama bin Laden noted that the insufficient number of U.S. forces in the mountains of Afghanistan in late 2001 allowed the Al Qaeda leader to escape capture. But the report omitted any reference to the recent revelation that the CIA specifically warned President Bush at the time that more U.S. troops were needed.
