Two stories from Dubai Media this morning which so aptly show the utter hypocrisy of the place.

3 years in jail for online rumor mongers: UAE Interior Ministry - Emirates 24|7

Experts point to wind shear in Emirates incident

Only the government can spread rumours and spin. No one else.

ExDubai is right. Protect the brand at all costs. I also saw this. Just when EK need some positive spin:

'World's luckiest man': Dubai resident wins $1m after surviving Emirates crash - Emirates 24|7

"Abdul Khadar became a dollar millionaire after he returned back to Dubai just few days before the Millennium Millionaire draw took place in Concourse A, Dubai International Airport."

Pleased for Abdul Khadar but can't help wondering if there is something here.
