France faces tough choices and, unlike Baghdad, in Paris you can't even talk about them honestly. As Jean-Claude Dassier, director-general of the French news station LCI, told a broadcasters' conference in Amsterdam, he has been playing down the riots on the following grounds: "Politics in France is heading to the Right and I don't want Right-wing politicians back in second or even first place because we showed burning cars on television."

Sounds like CBS, right?

CBS? Aren't their ratings somewhat less than Air America these days? How about the kingpin of the American mainstream media, Rush Limbaugh?
