Here is another MSM double standard that is so blatant in this article:

The tiny protest came as the United States marked the somber ninth anniversary of the September 11 attacks amid heightened tensions following a radical Florida pastor's threat to burn the Koran.

I have seen anti-war protests in DC that had 3 three people, while counter protesters were in the hundreds.

The anti-war group was given blazing headlines, favorable coverage, and no mention that they were 3 strong.

The counter protest was mentioned only in the context of being "hostile", and there was no coverage on their huge numbers.

Imagine of these guys had been burning paging of the Bible to protest “neo-crusaders”, the AP would have been slobbering all over ‘em.
