As I check the US vs. European media, it's instructive to see what US news is front page status here.
I see most US msm political news is given over to the dems vs. Lieberman, the possibility of the nuclear option with Alito and the resurrection of the leak story. Here, the story is still the CIA torture flights. El Pais covers a recent landing in Barcelona. The recent revelations about the Lincoln Group propaganda machine is also making headlines.
If American msm could/would have learned how to hold onto a story longer than 15 minutes, I think Bush would have been a one-termer. I disagree with the intelligentsia/snob sect that says we deserve the coverage we get, and that Americans don't have the attention spans to hold on to a story. Maybe the msm outlets could give us a try...
