Is Tehran Burning?

Michael Totten has two sources that say yes!

Interesting, and Michael is right-- when Tehran falls, whenever that is, the press will treat it as a "Holy Shit! How Did That Happen?!?" moment, because they've done a piss-poor job of handling developing stories in the Middle East.

Hey, and how messed up is this? The ABC poll that everyone and their brother blogged about yesterday-- the one that said that Iraqis in general are pretty OK with how stuff is going, though they didn't dig the war so overmuch-- got a long favorable piece on NPR yesterday, but nearly nothing that I could see on other broadcast news outlets. NPR came to the table, and CNN didn't?

Last night NPR had a big piece on polls measuring how foreigners worldwide nearly universally detest the United States, yet didn't make an effort to acocunt for the difference between that poll and the BBC poll in Iraq.

I think NPR is about as unbiased as Peter Jennings. But at least they're not the neverending Kerry commercial that Howard Stern has become.
