Al-Arabiyya: how House of Saud media works

So Al-Arabiyya (the news station of King Fahd's brother-in-law and an example of political sleaze in Arab media) put a story that said this:  "about a plan to appoint Manaf Tlas as head of the provisional Syrian military council and that a representative of Assad is part of the negotiations and an Arab state offered Assad asylum." But then removed it.  If you click on the original story, you will get a different story now.  This right-wing Lebanese newspaper copied the story. (thanks C.)
