    Well, if he's searching for news on CNN.com then he's used to "spin" <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    If I recall properly, <a href='http://www.msnbc.com/news/default.asp?0ct=-34o' target='_blank'>MSNBC</a> doesn't have any hoops to jump through regarding video footage.

    Der Spiegel oughta double-check their facts, atleast when they talk about Finland. They're well-known here for their once-a-decade "Finns killed their forests" headlines.

    Yea, well, the Spiegel is one of the most-often read newspapers in the world, so when they make a mistake (and they do as often as any other newssource), it shows. In 1991, they demanded that my father should be removed from his current position, which he was in a way - he's now the highest ranking administrative lawyer in Saxony <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
