That's hard to say, this is the MSNBC quote:

"Rumsfeld did not describe the photos, but U.S. military officials told NBC News that the unreleased images showed U.S. soldiers severely beating an Iraqi prisoner nearly to death, having sex with a female Iraqi female prisoner and “acting inappropriately with a dead body.” The officials said there was also a videotape, apparently shot by U.S. personnel, showing Iraqi guards raping young boys."

Which got pulled.
I found this Telegraph story which repeats the same claim, Salon has the same and there are a few other newspapers on there including the Guardian not to mention endless blogs. All talk of a video and there seem to be two seperate original sources, it's looking like it's got some weight to it.

Hell even Fox News has a story.
