Off topic, but this is one IRRITATED American. Would you PLEASE take Glenn Campbell back and SHUT the man up. How skewed can a reporter's work get? He belongs at Pravda.
He is consistently misreporting and skewing American opinion. Notice reporting in a restaurant they cut out the owner's opinion PRO-MacAskill. When American express bafflement, he tries to turn it into hostility.
WORSE, he has consistently omitted parts of his interview with a representative of our State Department. What was REALLY said?
This:
The EXACT conversation was this:
QUESTION: Glenn Campbell from the BBC: Has the United States forgiven the Scottish Government for releasing the man convicted of the Lockerbie bombing?
MR. KELLY (US State Department spokesman): Well, our views on that issue, of course, are extremely well known. Again, we’ve passed these views both in private channels and in – also publicly. I think just about everything that we have said to the governments in London and Edinburgh through diplomatic channels have mirrored what we’ve said publicly. I don’t think it’s a matter of forgiving anybody. I think all along, we recognized that Mr. MacAskill had the right to do what he did. We objected extremely strenuously at many different levels and in many different channels to the release of Mr. Megrahi. I think at this point, we’re looking to move on.
NOT what Mr. Campbell and the BBC wanted to hear apparently from the way they consistently edit his comments to leave the part about "nothing to forgive" and "he had the right to do what he did..."
DISGUSTING. It belongs in Pravda. You PAY for this stuff, right? My sympathies.
