Level, good thread, thanks! Meat, yes I noticed that about the BBC. In the U.S. we have "Public Television" funded in large part by the U.S. Taxpayers. For whatever reason it seems to be infested by those on the left fringe. I like shows that "report the news" and don't editorialize. I can make up my own mind about what I see. But, I do like "agressive" reporting like on the Lou Dobbs show. He has a lady on there named Kitty Pilgrim, an investigative journalist who does a great job going after info in Washington. Yes, I do see some parelells in the last two Administrations and in the facism listings above! Both cater to big business, both to "religion", both to "Identification of enemies", both to "Rampant cronyism and corruption", both to "tainted elections", and both to "intertwining of govt and religion. Bush talks to God, and injects his religious beliefs into govt policy, Clinton had that big bible under his arm every sunday and was big buddys with Jerry Falwell.
