Thanks Amara. My mainstream media news source these days
is mainly BBC and Business Week. I like the British take
on things. If I need more info, it all comes from the
internet. The internet rocks, it gives us control, it
provides such a wide array of opinion.
Question for the Brits: how is BBC perceived in Jolly Olde?
Do you guys view it as biased? Or middle of the road?

Seems a bit odd to me, if true. I remember that I was distressed to
find that from late-2001 and through the next couple of years, most
mainstream media I encountered (I visited the US -- in California --
a couple of times a year then) did not criticize the US government...
