Dipshit..
You don't know what you see. You have some stupid conspiracy theory that the Western media has some sort of grand political agenda and call any incident in which the media has not got it right as evidence of such.

It's kinda like how a Muslim watches a beautiful sunset or experiences a streak of luck and convinces himself that God was the cause of it.

Let me break it down for you though.
What has "Buddhists can be Atheists" got to do with anything? Sikhs can be Atheists, Christians can be Atheists, hell anyone can be Atheists.. so wtf has a Buddhist that CAN BE an Atheist got to do with what the actual religion itself teaches...

I do despair..
What has "Buddhists can be Atheists" got to do with anything? You're the one that tried to highlight the irony of an Atheist agreeing with a Buddhist quote remember?

It reports on things and uses spin to get through their own points of view to the people. The same goes for the Chinese news and noone has denied that but you never answered my question about what Chinese articles you thought actually had been biased.
If you remember correctly I've always said that the media exaggerates (spins) the news. That it not only purposely lies but does so to advance some grand Western political agenda is what I'm arguing against. Coming back to Tibet... I haven't really heard your defence against the media reports other than the accusations that the Western media are lying.
