CNN Ordered Out of Iraq - Iraqi Govt. Source

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Cable News Network (CNN), the U.S. television news channel, was ordered to leave Iraq (news - web sites) on Friday, an Iraqi information ministry official told Reuters.

"CNN has been ordered out of Iraq...because they have become a propaganda tool to spread lies and rumors," said the official, who declined to be identified.

CNN, on air, said it was "sad to learn" that its correspondents were being expelled from the capital by the Iraqi government.

The Atlanta, Georgia-based CNN said its team of journalists in Baghdad would probably have to travel overland to Jordan.
