finally !

its amazing to witness even a non-democratic regime like qatar seeking accountability from their press services post 9-11. al-jazeera has been pandering to the masses almost as badly at sadr's former rag did.
but i wonder how this 'review' will work itself out.

By god (figure of speach), i hope not :\
The only thing that could be worse than that would be, pictures of G.W.B. 24/7, like in Iraq with Mr. Hussein, or Hitler for that matter!

stateside, money today is to be made in liberal propaganda, so if murdoch is starved for another

usefulness.

but in qatar, they should know better than to leave al-jazeera to stir the worse elements in their
society (and region) with emotionalist accounts and flagrant appeals to the insurgent's cause.
seeking to ensure a better acounting, a stronger journalist ethic for fair and balanced reporting,
and an end to blatant sensationalism shouldn't be too much to expect from . . . . journalists ?

Any day now Rush is going to concede to Al Franken. Undoubtedly Rush is liberal propaganda to some.

From what i've seen, a free market regarding tv stations will never work. As long as you are dealing with humans, that is. Even though i greatly favor it, but i just dion't trust humans.
BTW, propanganda must/should never be accepted, even though it is from ppl you respect, deny (spelling?) it.

Forsythe, working on his propaganda to create a better human race ;) (as if :( )
