Quote of the Day

Jay Nordlinger makes a snarky comment in National Review Online about BBC Director General Mark Thompson's admission that 30 years ago the Beeb was left-wing:
Now, if Thompson could get the BBC’s Middle East coverage to be as fair as, say, al-Jazeera’s, that would be icing on the cake.
Nordlinger cites an expert of his acquaintance to the effect that al Jazeera actually is more fair than the BBC. That is either funny or damned sad, take your pick.
