It's big news here, too, jseal.

Key questions still remain about Blair's controversial decision to go to war, given the failure to find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.

Irish, it does not "sort of" go with them telling their journalists to refer to Saddam by a different noun than FOX news might.

It's not bias, Irish. It was bad reporting.

Bias is FOX news reporting that Bush can do no wrong. This case is about an unfounded report.

It's like when the NY Times was hit badly last year by Jayson Blair's lies in reporting. It seems to be a trend lately. Reporters, as politicians, sometimes embellish.

The Times withstood the blow to its reputation, BBC will, too (especially since it looks like the entire board will resign).
