When did "OSAMA" Bin Lan becaome "USAMA" Bin Laden? All the media is calling him Usama with a "U" and for the last 10 years ++ I always saw it written with an "O". Is it because it looks too much like our President name when written with the O? Serious question, I am just curious why the change in spelling suddenly?

The only outfit I've seen that uses the "U" is Fox News...they've used it for years which makes it even more ridiculous that they made the "Obama is dead" mistake on their crawl last night.
