Best News Coverage of Iraq Conflict (UK)

This will probably get skewed by the number of poeple who can only access a couple of these.

Shit - messed up, when I said Fox I mean Sky . Doesn't matter Fox is an affiliate of Sky anyway - it was the same stuff being broadcast some of the time anyway.

Assuming you meant Fox News, it was the best coverage. BBC has drifted way over to the left.

I watched CNN for the hotties.

And I liked that guy Wolf. He has a nice first name.

Oh yea, the coverage was pretty decent too.

You mean... WOLF BLITZER!?!? That is a cool name.

I'm not in the UK, but here in the US I fed myself a steady diet of all three networks on my cable system (Fox, MSNBC, CNN) and the internet, and trusted none of them.

Fox isn't as biased as some people make it out to be. They have a definite pro-war slant, but if you can pick fact from opinion, it doesn't matter. Besides, if you're only using one source for all your news, you're doing yourself a disservice.

(I didn't vote in this poll as I don't get all of those channels, or at least not their UK versions)

CNN for whenever, but I like BBC for the good view.
