Obviously the media here is overall biased to the left!

Pulitzer Prize! By the way here is another example of left wing bias: link I post this because I have written the AP regarding how they change their reporting without any audit trail. They never have responded.

Slothy - learn some history. By the way when PBS ran adocumentary based on Robert Conquests work the "media uproar was so great that they had to have apanel of "experts" discuss the documentary and provide the other side. Of course after the fall fo the Soviet Union it became obvious that the other side was full of shit. One of RC's books "Harvest of Sorrow" had by this time become out of print. The story goes that when asked by the publishers to come up with a new title for a revised edition he suggested "I fucking told you so" Probably not true but a good story nonetheless. Just another example of left wing bias.

Maybe you should be more careful with your incredibly overblown generalizations. Please Sloth – The post is about media bias. The example used to illustrate this bias is not the subject of the post. Now the media lies people die quote is taken from the oft used “Bush lied people died” often used by liberal fucktards. (Am I using that term correctly?) Again the tie in is to domestic politics.

Earth to Sloth...my post was about media bias! The conflict we are engaged in is truly a matter of life and death for many indiviuals - perhaps even us - to the extent the media lies the polity if it believe the lies are the truth will make less than optimal decisions. I never said or even implied that the references in the intial post had anything to do with the events in Russia. The history of the bias they reveal probably does impact the war in very real ways. This impact can be measured in lifes.

Actually you are completely wrong. I of course heard of this in the am and reteadedly sought to follow the events. The media references were emailed to me this am. Again a personal attack regarding something you know little about. hmmm a pattern.

After doubt has been removed all that is left is certainty.

See thread entitled : Honesty

Slothrop - You have removed all doubt!

I guess you are argeeing with me about media bias and wonder why sometimes I complain and others tims I do not. Of course there have been many cases of hostage taking and they are not all the same. In some cases they might be terrorists in other cases they simply are not. The case today was a perfrect case to illustrate media bias esp. when you look at the distribution of terms. That to me was the great thing about the post. Stop using bumperstickers as textbooks - war does not equal terrorism.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Friday, September 3, 2004 TIME Poll: Campaign 2004 BUSH OPENS DOUBLE DIGIT LEAD, ACCORDING TO NEW TIME POLL --- AMONG LIKELY VOTERS, 52% WOULD VOTE FOR PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH, 41% WOULD VOTE FOR JOHN KERRY, AND 3% WOULD VOTE FOR NADER New York – For the first time since the Presidential race became a two person contest last spring, there is a clear leader, the latest TIME poll shows. If the 2004 election for President were held today, 52% of likely voters surveyed would vote for President George W. Bush, 41% would vote for Democratic nominee John Kerry, and 3% would vote for Ralph Nader, according to a new TIME poll conducted from Aug. 31 to Sept. 2. Poll results are available on TIME.com and will appear in the upcoming issue of TIME magazine, on newsstands Monday, Sept. 6. Weren't the Kerry supporters say he didnt get a bounce because there were so few undecided voters? Sounds like alot of people must be giving Kerry the boot..or...the Kerry supporters were full of BS.. Well maybe both

Billcoe. My guess is that the terrorist know they are terorists. They choose to be such. Perhaps they are freedom fighters but that does not take away their terrorist status.

See above definition. The media is misrepresenting the issue.

hostage:a prisoner who is held by one party to insure that another party will meet specified terms. These were children who were destined to be slaughtered. The were not hostages. The terrorist blow a bomb up and escape. Perhaps there is a secondary explosion that kills the people who are caring for the injured. A textbook case of terrorism. That CNN and the BBC both used the term Hostage taker is telling. How worked up am I ? You cannot tell but you couldnt pass up an attack against me as opposed to my argument. bravo!

CNN - hostage-takers MSNBC - militants CBS - militants ABC - militants Fox - terrorists BBC - hostage-takers In addition to the schoolyard there is this : A female suicide bomber was detained near the headquarters. She was dressed up in a white smock. First she tried to get in the hospital building, but was scared of police and headed toward the headquarters, where she was arrested. link Reports children were shot in the back and beaten with rifles. Seems FOX is the only honest one in the whole bunch. Pathetic. The media lies and more people die.

An American? I wonder how Putin will respond? Do you think the US has waged even the beginings of a serious war? Should we is another question. Isnt there an appropriate Churchill quote?
