Did you find anything factually incorrect?

I noted 'massacred' and 'slaughtered'.

What words would you have preferred?

Here are a few quotes from a BBC article on US/NATO'S vicious attack on the Djakovica refugee column:

(From a NATO briefing)

It was also suggested that Serbian forces operating in the area might have been responsible for some of the deaths at the second location, perhaps using machine guns on the refugees. Factually wrong? Does the BBC accept any responsibility for what they are spoon fed?

After NATO attacked the front vehicles, Serbian planes may have attacked the rear vehicles.... And so the BBC pays homage to the cindered bodies of the innocent refugees--who were trying to return to their homes. But the BBC was only writing what they were told--and not asking any questions. (BBC Online Network, April 19, 1999)
