Addi, It is simply a matter of rating and what the media thinks people would care about! And that is the sad part of an open society. I think the flip side of this coin is that because it is an open society, most people are aware that the media care about ratings, at all costs, and will take that into consideration when reading these stories. I personally feel that most journalists are no better than vultures circling in the sky waiting for a good bite! I have been under the impression, for more than 20 years, that the Shah wasn't so bad, but he was run out of the country. I think as time goes by, most people can see the reality of the stories that the media puts out? Once the dust settles from all the hype.
