Good Morning Blogosphere! (Updated)
Here's what I'm reading this morning:
More on American companies still helping terrorists. Related.
Pop quiz, cowboy. Al Jazeera runs positive story on Pope. What is reaction of salafists, wahabbis, and other radicals? One guess.
Giuliana Sgrena changing stories yet again. Not surprising.
Blame Bush. For everything. Seriously.
Frequent commenter and friend of The Jawa Report, See Dubya, is guest blogging over at Patterico's place. Cool.
Is Oliver Willis white? Yes.
Terri Schiavo poll rigged. You mean the question you ask may influence the answer given?
Congrats. It took me like 6 months to reach that mark...(grumble, grumble)
Tim's father has had a stroke. Please include him in your prayers.
Sources reveal that something big is going to happen in the blogosphere tomorrow. Ask yourself this question, though: Can bloggers help the spread of democracy? Details later.

Sgrena's story has changed - to that of being driven down a secured road firmly under U.S. control. Why was she fired upon then? Who did the shooting? Too many questions unanswered. I'm waiting for the five Ws.

Perhaps this make some of you realize that Al Jazeera is not run by terrorists. The people who got pissed off about their Pope coverage were...drumroll...radicals. The MAJORITY of the arab world would disagree with them, which is why they are called...wait for it...radicals.
Interestingly enough, this situation is strangly familiar to republicans complaining about CBS and democrats complaining about Fox News. Perhaps we will open our eyes and see how silly this is.

Al Jazeera has taken something of a turn since the Iraqi elections. I need to post on this, but there is a definite change in how stories are contextualized in al Jazeera.

Sgrena comments that she thinks "it was because of the anti-war coalition in Italy she was freed and it just shows what can be done when you are organised" ARHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I SAY IT AGAIN ARHHHHHHHHHHH
This woman is really pissing me off as a matter of fact
there have been anti-war protests in the UK and Margaret Hussan did more for the people of Iraq than she could ever hope to but the fact is Mrs Hussan was still murdered. So that puts paid to that bullshit!

More likely it was because of that brave man and the fact that money exchanged hands.
