Iraqi state TV broadcasts appeals for hostage's release
Iraq’s state television has begun broadcasting appeals for the release of kidnapped American journalist Jill Carroll including footage of her mother and a major Sunni Arab politician describing the 28-year-old freelancer as a friend of Iraq.
Carroll, who reported from Iraq for the Christian Science Monitor, was kidnapped on January 7 in Baghdad while on her way from the office of Sunni politician Adnan al-Dulaimi.
