No further comment needed. From Biased BBC: <font size=4> # The trouble with the truth BBC News Online journalists have been banned from referring to Saddam Hussein as a former dictator. Instead, they must call him "the deposed former President of Iraq". With 501 instances of Chile's former dictator, Augusto Pinochet, being referred to as exactly that on the BBC's website, one cannot help but wonder why such a double standard has come to pass at the BBC. What makes one former dictator more deserving of respect than another? As the song says, the trouble with the truth is that it always begs for more truth. Exactly why a news organisation should wish to prevent the truth from being spoken by its journalists is, in this case, a total mystery. If you're outside of Britain, just be thankful that you're not forced under penalty of law to finance this deeply troubled organisation's efforts to dodge reality. <font size=3> biased-bbc.blogspot.com
