Ottimo riepilogo, su Arutz Sheva (IsraelNationalNews.com), di tutte le prove a sostegno della teoria che il “massacro di Cana” sia stato – in tutto o in parte – orchestrato da Hezbollah per scatenare l’indignazione dei mainstream media occidentali. …

Your observation that reporters have no real life experience, making them easily duped, is tellingly true. And then we are further subjected to their mindless commentary. Their credentials are little more than those of an entertainer.

The blogosphere is an “open source” way of documenting actual events and is a welcome corrective to the MSM distortions of the last 40 years.

AJ,
Agree that democracies are the best vehicle to manage the misfits in every society and culture. So, as President Bush reminds us, the spread of freedom is our best course.

HT “Sam Pender”

RBT and Sam Pender have been carrying on a high level, back channel discussion re the Israeli IDF tactics in this latest go around with Hezbollah.
…

Sam Pender and RBT believe that IDF is:

ISRAEL – IDF/IAF have “ropadoped” Hez big time!

As you suggest the MSM has not realized this and have been pawns in Hez’s propaganda campaign. The MSM just can’t get it right and tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth!

Thanks for your coverage on the Qana incident to get the truth out.

All in a day’s work for the manipulation machine we call the mainstream media.

But thanks to the bloggers, the media is having to come off this stuff pretty quickly these days. One public service the blogs are performing is keeping the media’s feet to the fire. Maybe the in the long run we will end up with better mainstream media but it is going to take time.

“After fully reading the RCP link above I can honestly say I think the blogosphere did the world a favor with their questions regarding Qana.”

This happens so many times. I think even the Israeli’s realized very soon that what they were hearing on Qana wasn’t what happened there.
but your point was, the blogosphere is making a big difference in the truth getting out. But still we have to be careful, because some sites deliver so much trash, that you can’t believe much or any of it. An example, I was reading a post by Eric Alterman on the HuffPo and I could only read the first paragraph before I realized he was babbling so incoherently that there was no need to read further. I wrote a comment about the post, but HuffPo wouldn’t let it publish. They won’t allow much dissent about their regular posters.
But you are right, once the liberal press realized they had been “had” on the Qana story it died faster than it started.
Today I read a story about Snowing in Africa and another about reducing the number of predicted intense hurricanes this year. Don’t you just know this is devastating news to the global warming crowd. Yesterday was the hottest day ever(whoops, last 5 years) in New York City. Was it that hot there 5 years ago? What, we’ve been having ‘ global cooling’ for the last 4 years. No, they are quick to cite facts that support their point: such as hottest day in 5 years as a fact that the world is getting hotter, but ignore the fact that just 5 years ago it was equally as hot. WTF.
