Not to mention, if there was one media organization in the world that would be out to push this story, it would be Fox. They haven't touched it yet. That's because, as many of us has been saying, this isn't huge news. It was a horrible thing for the French military to have done, but it's not something the media can successfully capitalize on in the US. I'd predict PBS and Reuters go to press with this before Fox.

I find it really funny that you think that the reason the media isn't jumping all over this is because it doesn't show how the US as a bad guy. It just doesn't add up.
It's the whole "liberal media conspiricy" that every single conservative has drilled into their heads by the republicans even though the owners of media companies are all conservative and republican themselves. Every time something somewhat negative about US actions is reported its the "goddamn US-hating, Frenchie-loving, liberal media" conspiracy spouting lies.
Ahhh, I get it now, thanx for explaining that to me, makes sense now.

The media isn't jumping on this is because 80% of Americans probably don't know Ivory Coast is a country. And I'm positive 99.9% couldn't find it on a map.
that made me laugh
What's even funnier is that its probably true.

haha, did you notice how the welcomeeverybody website is full of pictures that aren't real individuals? Its almost like this one guy created this website with random pictures that he found of Moore, Bush, drunk people, dogs and parrots to create a beautiful album of puppets saying that they are pro bush. Wow, how creative can you get?

PBS: http://www.pbs.org/newshour/updates/ivorycoast_11-09-04.html
Fox:.... nope, still nothing. How bizarre.
