As much as I love the BBC, it's hardly objective journalism (but, being as we're all human beings, it's simply impossible to be truly objective). It still champions the Western "our democracies rock your socks" line. BUT, it's still very good television news and I appreciate it as such.

I like the Guardian, a LOT, but it takes a decidedly anti-Russian line that puzzles me. Their reporting on Bush, Iraq, etc. is superb, yet they fall into the same "Putin is the devil" trap as so many other Western media outlets and it's just perplexing and sad.

Russia bars ABC over interview

Russia says it will not renew the accreditation of journalists working for the US television network ABC.

The decision follows ABC's interview with Chechen rebel leader Shamil Basayev, who claimed responsibility for the 2004 raid on a school in Beslan
