Unnamed, Unnoticed (Iraqi suffering examined)

The lack of "official" figures, however, shouldn't absolve the media from their blindness to Iraqi suffering, since available figures, incomplete as they are, are staggering for a guerrilla war. Reliable sources have certainly done their best to count, sources like IBC, Brookings, and the Iraqi and American epidemiologists who estimated in a study published in the British medical journal the Lancet that 100,000 Iraqis might have died in the war by September, 2004 Here

Update:

well well well ... i do alot of moaning about the media bias in the war with iraq but for once i must give credit

the BBC are running with the headline story "Conflict 'kills 25,000 Iraqis'" that will teach fox for calling them biased
