Slaughter Slant: Houla massacre sparks media blame-game

The most gruesome episode in Syria's uprising is quickly turning into a PR battle, as each side, and their allies, portion blame for the slaughter in Houla. Just four days after the murders of over a hundred men, women and children - the media has been flooded with images furthering one, or the other agenda.

Commenting on the BBC's blunder with the Iraq picture, journalist and human rights investigator Keith Harmon Snow says there's simply no way it could have been posted by mistake.

And strange, how Breivik´s connection to Mossad and freemasons weren´t really made public.

It´s always the "other" side, that´s painted as "monsters"...

BBC CAUGHT WITH PANTS DOWN AT DOWNING STREET. LIBYA N SYRIA WAR TACTICS, MEDIA TACTICS ARE SIMILAR. DO ALL YOU CAN BUT SYRIA OR SHAM WILL STAND TALL. LATEST STANDING ORDER IS TO WAG A FULL WAR ON THE PAID MURTAD THUGS.

It's not their fault in the west there's a lot of pressure to deliver the news in a certain way, many even say it reached Wikileaks and Assange himself let alone the public television

Yeah, right and I am the president of the USA. Why are you so naive? Nato is just another tool for conflict, first of all do you have any idea how and why was it formed?

[edgar0001]

Why they do sent those terribly stupid, propagandistic statements of Kofi Annan? The government of course does not like any violence in the country - because NATO wants this to get an accuse to bomb Syria.

The government did not start the violence and can not stop it because the US/NATO/Saudi/Qatari death squads are there to kill, provide unrest and damage and declared they wont not stop this. And even USA did say they should not stop their violence and armed them with anti-tank weapons

What a beautifully balanced and insightful report from Sara Firth. The BBC and American news outlets should study her work and learn how a real journalist covers a story like Syria.
