Newspaperin' and the Jihad

Read this article and tell me why the the lede doesn't mention that Pakistani government troops, surprised and heavily outnumbered, repelled a Taliban attack and inflicted heavy casualties on the attackers?
Isn't that important enough not to be buried halfway into the story?
Instead the writer highlighted the "boldness" of the Taliban
Seems to me "boldness" like that is going to get them all killed.
Here's hoping.
