A London Economist called Paul de Rooij has written a widely published article about Western propoganda. In regard to the piece he says "I can only watch 10 minutes of CNN or 15 mins of BBC, but then I notice that the experience has been detrimental to my mental health. I become fidgety and I talk back to the TV... I needed an antidote! And my solution was to write an article analyzing the current propaganda, and I hope it also will help you keep your sanity!!". Two exclamation marks? I ask you... Anyway, it's worth a read and our Mr de Rooij makes some fine observations and compiles a good legacy of examples for all to enjoy.

Who would make a better president? Bush or a box of Tic-Tacs? An objective analysis.
