From the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies:
SPIN CITY? Check out these two headlines:
"Arms Move to Syria 'Unlikely,' Report Says"
"The Bush administration's senior weapons inspector said in a report that it was 'unlikely' that Saddam Hussein's forces moved weapons to Syria."
- The New York Times, April 26, 2005
"CIA can't rule out WMD move to Syria"
"The CIA's chief weapons inspector said he cannot rule out the possibility that Iraqi weapons of mass destruction were secretly shipped to Syria before the March 2003 invasion, citing 'sufficiently credible' evidence that WMDs may have been moved there."
- The Washington Times, April 27, 2005
What's an average fellow to do? Read past the headline, keep a critical eye...things most people don't have time to do.
