i guess the media has an aversion towards sleazy suicide bombers that are promised 72 virgins if they kill a couple dozen kids. can't figure that one out, though, i suppose the only explanation is that jews really do own the media.

I'm probably going to sound stupid, but why?

Is this directed to me?

Uh...I was more agreeing with you than anything else. Just saying that if someone calls some news media "Fair and balanced" it usually comes with a Christian bias.

I thought this was obvios. To me it is anyway, though I might be wrong.

The US media itself is very biased toward its own country and therefore not much negative news about the US is printed when it comes to US acts in the world. Israel is in many ways a "extension" of the US. Its a democracy, the only democracy in the middle east so this is perhaps still leftover thoughts since the democracyVScommunism thing was. The country is a democracy and therefor the US must protect it.


One question, has it been published in the US media that US representatives trashed at least 3 weeks of talks about the improvement of the 1972 Germ War Pact? the eu is pissed real bad.

It's not too funny to hear you guys talking about how we should hate a group because of their religion. It reminds me of some wars.

you must not have much experience with us media. there probably aren't that many countries with media that bashes its own government like we do.

Nefrodite,
Kyoto was never bad, just demanded to much of some countries.

Well, I think the media likes to bash its own government for just about anything, but according to what I´v heard from people I know that live there say that much of the news are filtered, so much is left out because it makes the US look bad compared to other countries.

I would argue with you, but since you're basing your opinions on secondhand knowledge, I won't.

Fine, I dont belive I´m 100% correct either, very possibly wrong.
But still I think media bias towards Israel is because Israel reprisents the US in many ways in the middle east.

Since the news media don't applaud the suicide bombings and called Hamas heroes, don't mean that they are pro Israel. The news also covered the assassin attempt by Israel against Hamas. They don't show Israel deliberately targeting innocent Palestinian while they are shopping or working because it hasn't happen.
