What is interesting is how those 2 articles do not mention the Bush Administration propoganda pieces in the headline and only mention them when you read down to near the bottom.

That is what you get with American media vs. unbias non-American media.

I have to laugh when people say that the American media is anti-American, and that the media of our allies is also anti-American. It shows how extremely far out of the mainstream they are.

There is a little "what if" example that puts things in perspective:

In the closing days of WWII, a German newspaper prints that death camps were discovered by the invading Soviet Army, and an estimated 100,000 Jews were killed by the Nazis in these death camps.

A leader of a Jewish group calls the article pro-Nazi propoganda and says that the 100,000 figure is far too low, and claims that the numbers reach into the many milllions.

A Nazi leader calls the story anti-German propoganda and scolds the newspaper for printing such rediculous conspiracy theories about death camps which he says do not and have never existed.

So here is the question. Is this newspaper pro-Nazi, anti-Nazi, or are they "fair and balanced"???


Next time you read a story about bad news in Iraq in the "liberal" media, keep this example in mind. You may think they are being anti-Bush or anti-American, but they are actually probably sugar coating the bad so it sounds less bad. If you don't think so, then try reading about the same story in an Asian, African, or European newspaper.
