How many pages does the report, released Friday morning by the Senate Intelligence Committee, have?

(1) USAToday: The report has 560 pages.

USAToday today reported:

The Senate Intelligence Committee released the scathing 560-page report Friday morning. The report examines the intelligence gathering process on Iraq, including the failure to find any of the chemical and biological weapons that the CIA and Saddam possessed. Those weapons were one of the justifications for war in Iraq.

And,

(2) Washingtonpost: 511 pages, I bet you.

Washingtonpost also reported today:

The 511-page report, the product of the committee's year-long investigation of pre-war intelligence on Iraq, also pointed to severe management problems at the CIA. The agency's director, George J. Tenet, announced his resignation last month for personal reasons and leaves office Sunday.

I checked out the reports from CNN, New York Timee. Both newspapers said "511 pages". But I am still afraid they might be caught by "group think".

I'm guessing five-hundred-and-eleven pages; but, unfortunately, we won't know. The public version of their report has only half of the Committee's findings in it..

Yes, that is the question.

could it be, that 'content' is more important than 'quantity'? Shocked
