in the uk it's solved by a standard that all news broadcast on the main 5 news tv channels must be inpartial, unbiased, and neutral. the bbc has a legal obligation to be neutral. there's very little opinion based news channels like yours here, they just present facts. thus important people can't get on the news/radio without answering tough questions. i seriously advise americans to listen/read/watch bbc news. you'll be shocked by how different is isand how much more you learn about each story.

Blackberry is doomed.

Typical American sticking their nose where it don't belong. Agree with other people with also the same first thing that came to my mind is the reported asked about India. We have no say over what they do in India or their government. Your not hard hitters you just don't know when to mind your own business. I agree with the CEO they have been single out. You advert for some backing up system saying oh shit does happen to technology but gee what is blackberry bullet proof?

The fluffiness started with Larry King. He lowered the standards of interview journalism in North America.

TYT really missed the ball on this one, as completely as the BBC reporter did. RIM can’t give information about security issues the governments of India and other countries might have. The questions are impossible to answer truthfully. And if governments want certain restrictions / access to information, all any company can do is compromise with that government or don’t do business in said country.

That is quite the biggest load of bullshit I've read in some time. The BBC themselves admitted they were biased ffs. All mainstream media are biased.  I'd advise all to look at any and every available source on the internet and come to their OWN conclusion, not some petaled mass manufactured "news" they want YOU to hear. You are apart of the problem.

That's just typical of an American.
