-Caveat Lector- CBC Retracts War Story: One Albanian Lie Debunked, Thousands to Go TORONTO, Sept. 8 - Right from the start of NATO's war on Serbia, we've labeled the various dubious and spurious claims and stories by the NWO media as the "Wag the Dog" productions created in the Lie and Deny Studios (see "Beware of 'Wag the Dog' Kosovo 'Atrocities' Charges" - S99- 10, Day 5, Update 1, Item 3, Mar. 28). The particular cause of the above commentary was the CNN's "Adona" broadcast - "a bogus e-mail exchange between an Albanian girl and a student at Berkeley," as we put it on Mar. 28. It resembled the similarly fraudulent "Zlata's Diary" manufactured by the NWO "Wag the Dog" productions during the Bosnian war. Neither lie was ever retracted by CNN or any other network which broadcast it. Well, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) was the first major network to admit publicly on Sept. 8 that it had been duped by another Kosovo Albanian lie about a Serb atrocity aired during NATO's war on Serbia. "CBC correspondent Nancy Durham made a name for herself by venturing deep into Kosovo as a one-woman news team and bringing back moving stories about both the dead and the living," wrote the Toronto-based Globe and Mail in its Television reviews section on Sept. 8. "Now it turns out that one of her most touching reports -- about an 18-year-old girl who vowed to avenge her sister's death at Serb hands -- is based on a lie. The sister, as Durham discovered when she made a postwar visit to the girl's home, was alive and well." "Trust and confidence are fundamental to the mission of CBC News," the Globe said, "and when The National (main CBC nightly news program) has been used to advance the Kosovo Liberation Army's cause so successfully, the network's entire credibility is at stake. That's why CBC is pulling out all the stops today to admit what went wrong and explain how it happened." At the center of the public broadcaster's mea culpa is Durham's latest report from Kosovo, titled 'The Truth About Rajmonda: A KLA Soldier Lies for the Cause.' Just to make sure that the point gets across, this "intimate and revealing story" aired three times…" "Truth may be a casualty of war, but cynicism is a great survivor," the Globe concludes. You can check out the story at the CBC Web site: http://www.tv.cbc.ca/national . When you open the site, look for "The Truth About Rajmonda". --- TiM Ed.: Guess it would be too much to hope for CNN's Christiana Amanpour to follow in CBC's footsteps and fess up to all the lies and distortions she has pawned off over the years as "news?" Not only because it might embarrass her new "hubby," the State Department spokesman James Rubin. But because, unlike the CBC, Ms. Amanpour and CNN don't have to worry about "the network's entire credibility." They don't have any. -------------- Kathleen "It should, it seems to me, be our pleasure and duty to make those people free, and let them deal with their own domestic questions in their own way.
