De Menezes Killer Rewarded

25-02-2007 00:04

The BBC Joins The Ranks Of The Untrustworthy United States Media

24-02-2007 22:52

With the airing on BBC2 of “911: The Conspiracy Files,” one must ask the question will the BBC be joining the United States mainstream media in its failure to provide “truth in reporting?” Several of the guest make excellent points that seem to be completely disregarded by the producers of this program.
