Host, I believe the issue comes down to the difference between "accurate" and "complete." My impression of MEMRI is that, although it is generally accurate in what it does present, it selects out items that it finds particularly "telling" and leaves others out. Bottom line, even though MEMRI's stuff is <i>accurate</i>, the issue is whether the picture thereby presented is <i>complete</i>. For that, you'd need a comparable news aggregator/translator from a different viewpoint. I'm not aware of one (Juan Cole is a commentator, which is a different sort of exercise, though yes, he will occasionally present stuff from Middle Eastern media). Maybe this is a niche you can fill?
