Well, CAzMedia, just because it isn't CNN, doesn't mean its true. In fact, I have spoken to a few foreigners in my area (from Greece, Sri Lanka, and the like) and they tell me OUR news is edited severely. They pick they home news on satellite and tell me the REAL DEAL.

Have you ever even seen these news casts for yourself? I have, they are the most biased pieces of crap out there.
I would rather have edited truth than the slanted lies they put out.

Listen, you can continue to drink the Kool-Aid but I'd rather have my news unfiltered so I can make a true assessment of what's going on in the world.

Now, that doesn't make any sense. Al-Jazzera lies when they are right in the middle of the action? Do they lie because they are Arab? I thik they are prefectly capable of putting out honest journalism as anyone.

So, the US doesn't do that? Your news sources don't do that? If you say they do it, then it stands to reason that we do it too.

The US news sources have nothing to gain by doing so. So much of the world takes their news in from our sources that we can't afford to show bias. Otherwise you would not have CNN offices around the world.
What is the phrase that I have heard? "If if doesn't show the Arabs in a good light, it doesn't get on Al-Jazeraa."

That is neither Arrogant nor racist. I am pretty sure that I have seen more news on Al-Jazeraa than you have.
