Example of what has to be intentional media distortion - CBS this time

6. In this circumstance, you're right, but I think this is a lot more endemic than that.

I was in France these last few weeks and I could not avoid noting the difference in tone in the news reports between the two countries. In France, the news try to be as objective as ever, letting comments to opinion makers. In this country, it seems everybody confuses raw facts and comments.

I have to say I am starting to cringe when reading some of the bloggers I liked a lot. Is it possible to tell raw facts and let people decide what to think. I am so tired to seeing both parties start rethorical florishes in order to hide the truth. Sometimes, dems screw up and it would be better tor recognize it immediately. Sometimes, antisemitism is just antisemitism (and yes, Jean Marie Le Pen is an antisemite, but so are some Republicans and even some Democrats here). And sometimes, once in a while, talking to the other side would help people. So, it is a little bit disheartening when you see the rethoric on both sides (and I like a lot more our side than theirs, but still I'd like some openness rather than pure propaganda).

This said, I hope they will do nothing. I know the neo-cons are yelling that we need to go, but really? Are they enlisting to go?
