>>>do you only take issue with the American news coverage or other countries as well? Iraqi news coverage?<<<

I take issue when an obvious and clear story is repressed. I've seen this happen twice: a) The British intelligence dossier that was plagerized; and, b) The US spying on the homes and offices of UN Security Council members.

you astound me pt

you've seen it happen twice and both examples you use are of countries known for democratic free press

I might add, both countries you've noted are countries whose policy in the Iraqi conflict are opposite to yours

I think you're flat out flagrantly biased sir

this in the hopes that it'll get a scoop over its competition.
Oh, come on, PT, one of the best and longest running news stories of this century was Watergate- -which can be fairly said, regardless of your political persuasion, to have been the media feeding off of the gov'ts crimes and the ripping apart of an administration. Scandals sells, baby. And scandal sells well.

And among the most boring "news" is that spoon-fed to the press by the gov't.

Your bias is this matter is showing.
