Charlatan this has absolutely NOTHING not one thing to do with the topic at hand and you know it. The US attempts to minimize civilian casualties, Hezbollah attempts to maximize them amoung their own people. There is no comparison to be made. And beyond that, we are talking about bias in the press twords one side, the terrorists side. Again your statements must be comming from another thread because they have nothing in common with this one.

Someone will "uncover" this story when an editor decides it is "newsworthy". Until then, it will just be Internet rumour.

You mean a baised editor, who ran the story on the word of terrorists in the first place, is going to wait for some proof from where? They didn't wait for indisputable proof to run the story, why not point out that it may not be accurate? It may just be an internet rumour but so far internet rumours have been more accurate than offical press coverage. The whole point of the OP is the people who decide what is 'newsworthy' are biased and promoting an agenda.
