CNN & Fox brainwashing seems to work perfectly.

Bert,
I got a big kick out of you linking Fox and CNN. In the USA, the right wing
calls CNN the Clinton News Network or the Communist News Network. And they
think Fox is "fair and balanced." Why do they think that? Fox tells them,
every chance they get.

Hoping the rainstops this weekend so I can fly!

Well, for a European watching any news station in the US, it is amazing how
little information is actually passed (don't even mention background
information)...

Hey - they passed all the information you could wish (and more) for
about Nipplegate...

Clear prove that all necessary information about the really important
things in life is passed.

Very True. It is eye opening how much different the News is on BBC, CTV
(Canadian) and other nations than in America. I wonder what it would actually
take to get unbiassed news?

Wasn't there just a major finding in Britain about how "unbiased" the BBC
news is?

we have our share of biased news up here in Canada as well. I can live
with that and you usually know. Every country has less and more biased
news. Where I would draw a line is on the faked news. Whether it is
WMD's or the Christmas turkey ;-)

cheers

I liked the one where, after a single engine airplane crash, the
reporter authoritatively stated that the NTSB was searching for the
"black boxes". I too prefer reporters to report the news - and not to
make it up.
