CNN is reporting that Jill Carroll has been released from captivity, apparantly unharmed.  She was interviewed by Baghdad Television, a station owned by the Iraqi Islamic Party upon her release. 

I’m sure more details will come out in the days ahead.

UPDATE:  More from the Christian Science Monitor, the NYTimes, and the WaPo.

UPDATE #2:  And John Podhoretz is an insensitive, bloviating ass.  The woman has been free for less than a day, and the wingnut attack brigade has already geared up to paint her as being mental.  (Looks like reader Corinne caught this at the same time I did.  Kudos.)
