There is a difference between taking down a target *we said* we were going to take out (the US made clear Iraqi media was a target, since it's was a propiganda machine)... and an accident.
The US takes out a target by any means necessary... the easy way didn't work.
You kill the reporters... there is no news reported... the beast is silenced.
The US Said they were a target. The US said they were attempting to take out the media there. The US tried to defang it by removing the radio towers etc.... then they moved to plan B.
