TAKING THEMSELVES WAY TOO SERIOUSLY

The BBC publishes this headline:

Arab media lukewarm on Iraq deal

The BBC then actually goes on to describe how al Jazeera sees and is reporting this.

First off, Beeb...why in the world should we care how the Arab media react to this? Isn't it the Iraqi people we should concern ourselves with?

Secondly, have you been on another planet somewhere? Al Jazeera is one of the few media outlets in the world even more critical of everything we've done over there than you are.

Get real.
