News Media Bias

All over the world the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is seen in a different light. This article looks at the level of bias towards each side of the spectrum from the West to the East. Let me know what you think about the media bias. Is it possible to get a little bias as possible?

Osama University

The following is an article entitled "Osama University" fro 2003. It talks about a bill passed by congress that would require universities to teach international classes (particularly middle eastern studies classes) showing support for American policy. This article was written after the initial invasion of Iraq earlier that year. Comment on what you think.
