CNN snip

Amazing - to quote Ben :

"CNN is doing a bang up job. As Dan Hon investigates, their online transcript of Hans Blix's report to the UN is missing 866 words. The bits Blix said about Iraq complying with the UN resolution, and the bit where he refutes Colin Powell's evidence from the week before. Nice and subtle, boys."

he also notes:

"Meanwhile, guess the headline from their report on the worldwide anti-war marches…World antiwar rallies delight Iraq. Mmmm - hot bias free action there."

…

So the tanks have rolled away from the uk airports. Did Blair get the effect he wanted? Didn't seem to convince the millions on the streets (or Chirac).
