Thousands Mourn Death of Russian Journalist

Thousands of people turned out in Moscow today for the funeral of Anna Politkovskaya, a sharp critic of President Vladimir Putin and of Russia's war in Chechnya. The Russian journalist was shot to death in her Moscow apartment in what's being called a contract killing. President Vladimir Putin denounced her murder as "disgustingly cruel," but said her influence was "very minor." Who was she and why was her work important?
