Enough of CNN's double standards



		  A suicide bomb explodes in Jerusalem, fire, mayhem, body parts --
		  live feed on the ground, camera moving breathlessly.  The tone 
                  of the story is panicked, the voice of the journalist is hushed, 
                  the face of the anchor sad, grim, even angry.  The day after, the 
                  victims are interviewed in hospital, their tears shown up close 
		  and personal.

		  The IDF shells Palestinian towns, villages, unleashes a barage
		  of fire on civilians.  What do we see?  TAPED Wide shots of 
		  buildings on fire, men scurrying around trying to put fires
		  out, the faces of Palestinians deformed in anger.  The tone
		  of the story is humdrum, the faces of the anchors bored, 
		  emotionless, even eager to move on to the next story.  The day 
		  after, coverage of mass funerals, again wide shots showing
		  enraged Palestinians, elicting from viewers thus not empathy, 
		  but fear.No long, patient interviews on bed side of victims.  Nothing 
		  up close and personal.

		  Tired of these double standards from CNN?  Well, do something about it.
