If BBC covers a story about a bomb plot originating in England, it's relevant to the majority of English. Similiarly for the US, where the plot was headed. <BR/><BR/>Don't discount the effects of "Lebanon fatigue", either - this new situation allows western viewers a break from constant coverage of a crisis in which frankly, they have no personal stake beyond humanitarian appeal.<BR/><BR/>And for the world audience, the Islamic background means that the stories are clearly linked.marwanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10304774218048387311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15456688.post-1155351121970729222006-08-12T06:52:00.000+04:002006-08-12T06:52:00.000+04:00Huh?
