U.S. Media Lies and Distortions

Quick comparison between the Newsweek covers for Oct 2, 2006 between Europe, Asia, Latin America and the U.S.:



* One (International version) is about how the US is losing in Afghanistan
* One (US version) is about Brittney Spears

Not much commentary needed, imho..
