I have been hearing about this...
So, the media is not supposed to report anything that may be contraversial?
Worse riots have been started over much less and the media has not been blamed. Get real, those people over there hate our guts and have been protesting our pressence in their country for much longer. This current affront has only provided a convenient excuse.
Newsweek dosn't need to shut up, the media dosn't need to shut up, the government and the people need to get real about what they are doing in those countries.
