Pond scum appoints itself Chairman of the World, stands on a street corner and collects a petition to promote their views.

The Wall Street Journal says:

<...The vote in NATO on helping the U.S. in Iraq was after all 15-4 in favor, with the other opponents being the global powers of Belgium and Luxembourg.

'If you don't like the news, go out and make some yourself,'" Mr. Schell told the Los Angeles Times. ...

For a start, their sarcastic sneering at two lovely countries with very nice people is offensive. Typical Wall Street Journal. As so often, the person giving the put-down says more about themselves than the people they criticize, even if there's truth in their put-down in that Belgium and Luxembourg are probably loathe to diverge too far from German ideology [the Germans do have a habit of attacking when unemployment gets up a bit].

WSJ invents the news and continues its self-promotion to generate sales.

How come anyone still buys it or advertizes in it? Verizon and Sprint are obviously not doing a very good job of delivery low cost cyberspace to their citizens. Verizon is trying to be Chairman instead of just providing a pipeline. With WSJ, we've got enough self-appointed Chairmen thanks.

With cyberspace, all the data you can want is right at your fingertips. QUALCOMM is a better newspaper than the Wall Street Journal = they don't even try to invent or slant or distort the news, nor even discover or select it.

QUALCOMM, Kyocera and Google provide the pipeline and unbiased information, images.google.com direct from you to whichever aspect of the world, images.google.com or beyond, oposite.stsci.edu that you prefer.

QUALCOMM doesn't act as a political filter, or financial rose-coloured lens, like 19th century newspapers such as the Wall Street Journal, most of which won't be around in a decade. Good riddance.
