I think so, honestly, but maybe I'm being naive. Joel Send a noteboard - 22/08/2010 08:16:12 PM
Can you get more objective news about European politics by watching American news. It is not covered as extensively as they cover are but judge it based on what they do cover.

You won't get as much information, of course, and it will always be a little biased if only unconsciously by the reporters personal inclinations, but I don't think we got nearly as worked up as, say, the Brits did about Tony Blair supporting Bush in Iraq, or UKIP, because we simply don't CARE as much. It may be dramatic, but it's not portentous.

I don't know that Europeans are all that objective, either. Legolas - 22/08/2010 05:20:09 PM 711 Views
Well, more objective about our politicians than we are, I think. Joel - 22/08/2010 05:44:51 PM 737 Views
