what bugs me in CNN reports, that they show you that israel is RESPONDING to Hezb Allah... as if they have not attacked Lebanon...

Any way... they are using forbidden weapons to burn civilian people in Lebanon.. that is terrorism...

May Allah help Lebanese to cover their pain and suffering

I don't care what CNN or others say or write in a show of sympathy... They are regular apologists for israel... people can see with their own eyes and draw their conclusions.... even as the usual rehersed lines are used to echo a different sentiment....

But people in the west aren't seeing the truth specially for those who doesn't know any thing about the middle east, which causing them to be against Arabs...

some of them are falling easily in those lies.. CNN is not being honest to their viewer, and that is a serious issue

GO GO AL-JAZEERA

I actully watch CBC here in Canada, and CNN and 24 hours Al-Jazeera...

there's a HUGE diffrent between CBC, CNN and Al-Jazeera

CBC is some what better than CNN though...

Also Al-jazeera.net is being the best source for having the news online
 
I know.... it is up to God now.... read sura 17 verse 7 .... this has all been this has all been prophesied .... it is meant to be... and for a reason.... we are the generation unfortunately that the messenger (PBUH) described as the froth on the ocean waves.... Many in numbers but weak all around.... Perhaps in this complacency is the impetus to move us all to wake up... just ist3een bisaber and salat...

I do watch Al Jazeera, but in Malaysia it's not 24 hr. It's from 6.00 AM tp 10.00 AM then from 6.00 PM - 10.00 PM. Maybe because Malay translators need time to rest?? (IN Malaysia, Al Jazeera can be heard in Arabic or Malay)

go to JUMPTV.COM i never had it on my TV, i used to follow up with the news over the Internet throw aljazeera site... then i registered with jumptv and i have aljazeera channel with me every were now over the Internet...
 
:sl:

You know what I do get updated news, which is the internet. Going to different sources of same news and then concluding to myself which seemed the "best" and accurate news to me. The media is pointless, even muslim media channels are being opperated by non-muslims, which is a FACT. Think boardly even internet sources are not accurate, but it is better than television.

:w:

Is it? how about news on islamonline ?

Islam on line is not like that as well for sure, that website is moderated by shaikh Yussef Al-Qaradawi...

Al-Manar TV is not... also, i used to watch Abu Dhabi TV, that was a good source for news.. but i don't have it any more
there are some good channels that shows the truth...

the channels that doesn't show the real picture of this conflict are channels like, Jordan TV, Neil sat (Egypt).. and similar channels that is moderated by the Arab governments.
 
i don't have tv and i don't listen to commercial radio at all. (or npr - national public radio - also known as national petroleum radio). the only radio i listen to is pacifica radio - a leftist, listener-sponsored network. they do get some gov't money from the national community of broadcasters but the majority is paid for by listener subscribers. unlike npr, there is no corporate underwriting.
i get a lot of my news from the web.
one of the first sites i check out for headlines is:
http://antiwar.com/
it's an australian libertarian site and gets its news from a wide variety of sources

You should see Malaysian TV channels ... they are so anti-ISrael. In fact they dont use the word 'Israel'. They use 'rejim tel aviv' (Tel Aviv Regime). Al Jazeera at least give ISraeli to air their opinion to Muslim audience.... but Malaysian media ... NO WAY. If you're a Jew and live in Malaysia, you might be crying seeing our news.

You mean they aren't seeing what YOU percieve to be the truth?

Sticking with CNN, exactly what "lies" are you talking about? PurestAmbrosia has linked to several CNN videos recently, none of which seem to me to pro-Israel on biased in any way (if they were, I doubt she would have linked to them).

The only specific you have mentioned is

They ARE responding to Hezbollah, albeit grossly disproportionally, so where is the "lie"?

Personally I have always found CNN (and BBC) as un-biased and accurate as could reasonably be expected. That isn't true of all Western media by any means.

But the best graphic presentation should be won by CNN.
