RAINES AWARD NOMINEE:

Time to dust off this old award. Here's how Canada's National Post describes the CBC's coverage of the capture of Saddam:

To summarize, here are the impressions a casual viewer might have taken from Monday night's CBC news: (1) Iraqis still love Saddam, and so his capture has only enraged them; (2) Despite Mr. Bush's "gloating," things will get worse; (3) Saddam's trial will be a propaganda trick engineered to re-elect a Republican president; (4) To the extent Saddam did anything bad, America was the real villain; and (5) Saddam's capture is meaningless anyway because Osama is still on the loose.

Sounds familiar. Did the BBC train these guys?
