Here direct from the teat of Australia's ABC is a lovely lovely little example of why they are a disgusting anti-America propaganda machine.
I wonder when they will host a program on : "What the world thinks of Saudi Arabia" starring a brains trust of Daniel Pipes, George W Bush, Ariel Sharon and for balance, Noam Chomsky
At any rate there is a web forum so you can go to the site, look for it and post to your hearts content. Write to them and complain, I did!
What The World Thinks of America, a special 90-minute debate, brings together broadcasters and a range of diverse voices from around the globe to give a multi-national verdict on the United States. Hosted from London, the program will boast a panel of quality thinkers, movers and shakers, including former Palestinian negotiator Dr Saeb Erekat, former cabinet minister Clare Short, US journalist Joe Klein and former Pakistani premier Benazir Bhutto - a seldom convened brains trust of world views on America's pre-eminence.
Clare Short is a member of a 'brains trust'? Gimme a break she was only picked so her anti-US anti-war sentiment could get another public airing
Satellite links will create a sense of global conversation, with input from leading broadcasters around the world. The debate will also reveal the results of a ground-breaking, international survey of attitudes that will capture popular prejudices and convictions about America. There will be a separate poll in the United States testing the grasp of Americans on their public image abroad. These findings will give a truly global perspective on American values, politics, leadership and popular culture.
and when is a country OTHER than America going to sit in the judging-dock? I mean it is COMPARATIVE after all, whats say we do a little expose: what the world thinks of Indonesia? |
