Refering back up the thread to somewhere before the diversion on to the well-trodden ground of "Invading Iraq: Right or Wrong?" and taking up a previous deviation from the original post, "biased coverage by the BBC"...

Has anyone watched the BBC trailer for their available anywhere news coverage? (It shows people accessing BBC website news via mobile phones, PDAs and the like.) Of all the news stories glimpsed in the trailer, I have only spotted on military related (unsurprising, given how small a part the military plays in the life of Joe Public). Sadly, the story the BBC chooses to use is the headline "British Soldiers Beat Iraqi".

Total number of those stories run versus the number of dead servicemen stories? And yet it's the bad news sotry that the BBC pushes.
