>There was an article recently about ALL the Arab media who were on a payout list by Saddam.

Can you post a link to that? I missed that article.

I think this is the Weekly Standard article talking about Saddam feeding money to the journalists:

Saddam's Cash

I can't find it. I just remember that there was a lot of comment about all the Arab media people who were regularly given all types of gifts (cars, trips and money) for reporting favorably about Iraq. I don't know if CNN was involved in this or not; the report didn't appear to name any of them. But ... I also remember FOX discussing the gifts - most of the media people I had never heard of, but the people at FOX said it did appear to prove why the Arab media was so lenient toward Saddam.
