My son in Spain right now just reported the news on Spain tv is not
like the news in America. They hate ****, they talk about conspiracy theories and about his being wired for the debates with John Kerry.....on THE EVENING NEWS.

He's thinking of moving there...I hope it happens for him and his girlfriend....

8. The Sad Part
Is there are probably good journalists out there who want to report facts and not myth like Faux News does. Being impartial is no longer appreciated along with every other good human quality.

7. I get the same reports...
It's amazing the path that Spain took after the Madrid bombings compared to us here in the US. They're citizens are so proud of it too. I saw a great interview on Democracy Now when Amy Goodman went to Spain for two days and broadcast from Madrid. She touched on the whole Spain/madrid/Election/Democracy issue on about a month back, amongst a host of other things such as the killing by US troops of the Spanish journalist at the Palestine Hotel at the start of the Iraq war. I suggest checking it out, well worth the hour.
