Today's advance in the democratisation of Iraq: the US-appointed governing council decided to ban arab TV-stations al-Jazeera and al-Arabiya for "inciting violence". I guess the "freedom" the Americans are bringing doesn't include freedom of the press...
According to the BBC, both stations have "defended themselves against charges of bias, saying they present the views of all sides". But somehow, I suspect that's precisely the problem.
