What do you think about this? I think the media has far more to answer for than any other group when it comes to this issue.

Have a look at ''women's" magazines like Bleat (sorry, I mean Heat). On one page, they'll be whining about how skinny Vic Beckham is and how she's endangering herself.

Nine pages later, they're lauding her as a fashion icon and telling you how to ''get her look'', ie that of a stick insect, recommendiong clothes designed for women who have starved themselves to a size 0, and telling us how Posh is a fashion icon to be emulated.

Same with Keira Knightly, Paris Hilton, Geri Halliwell in the past, Nicole Bi.tchie, Lindsay Lohan, the Olson twins, and everybody else on the planet except Johnny Vegas.

What say you?

HOUSTON (Reuters) - A 10-year-old U.S. boy who hanged himself may have been inspired to do it by television coverage of Saddam Hussein's execution, police said on Thursday.

Relatives told police in Webster, Texas, that Sergio Pelico had seen the video of the former Iraqi leader's hanging and asked about it before the incident on Sunday.

*********************

KOLKATA: A 15-year-old girl from Kharda district hanged herself in response to the execution of Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein on Thursday.

"She said they had hanged a patriot. We didn't take her seriously when she told us that she wanted to feel the pain Saddam did during the execution," the girl's father, Manmohan Karmakar, said.

From TOI
********************************************************
Why has his hanging developed such a morbid interest?

What is your opinion of these new developments?

I'm interested to know what people thought of the Saddam execution video footage and why people thought it was murder and that he didn't deserve to die for the horrendous crimes that he had committed on humanity? And also why others thought that his execution was justified and right and that we had every right to watch. ALL OPINIONS WELCOME!

A lot of time seams to be wasted putting the latest BB nonsense on the news. Surely it has enough airtime without news companies updating us all on the latest vacuum to hit the screens.

The reason why I ask is just recently it was reported on a headline "Muslim guilty of inciting murder". I think that this is totally wrong and can only lead to tension amongst faiths. After all you don't see headlines like "Christian gets life for murder" or "Jew gets fined for theft"

A person's belief or faith should not have anything to do with what crime they are guilty of.

I work alongside people from different faiths and I have no problem with that. Mainly my work takes me into Tunisia a 98% Muslim country, my colleagues accept that I am Christian and we share views.

What I can't understand why the press find it necessary to single out the Muslim faith when reporting any crime commited by a Muslim. Why not go for the whole hog and put headlines mentioning all faiths! It is time that the press stopped this farce!

There are crimes committed by people from all faiths but yet we don't see these faiths reported in the press!

It sounds crazy I know but I watched a film called Loose Change and I also watched a film called 9/11 Mysteries and Terrorstorm and I am almost totally convinced this is the case. If so this is the biggest mass murder and crime in American history. They should at the very least Re Open the investigation with a TRUE independent commission.

Please watch a video or all the videos below to understand where I am coming from. I looked at a website called screw loose change and it did not satisfy me. They could not adequetely explain away anything. In fact all these so called myth debunking sites remind me of propaganda and have no legs to stand on.

Here are the video links for Loose Change, 9/11 Mysteries, and Terrorstorm, all for free.

Does anyone else think that the Al J is doing a good job.
In a region that has hardly ever known a free press
have AL J done enough to walk the fine line which is very fine there, to report without excessive bias.
I would expect the bias and it is there but I think they have managed it quite well. What do you think?
