Holy Scrizz! An actual example of a journalist subjecting a claim from the President to factual scrutiny---in the lede paragraph no less. From the AFP,
"US President George W. Bush charged Monday that Iran has openly declared that it seeks nuclear weapons -- an inaccurate accusation at a time of sharp tensions between Washington and Tehran."
And the headline on Yahoo! News:
Bush levels dubious Iran nuclear arms charge
Clearly some have learned the lessons from the Iraq war propaganda campaign. There may be hope yet.
