The foreign news agencies' correspondents, located in Iran, have misreported the news in reference to the massive demos made, at the occasion of "Fire Fiest", and have kept their usual silence on the unprecedented unrests that rocked most Iranian cities yesterday night by resulting in several deaths and hundreds of wounded and arrested .
Most of what these agencies, especially Reuters and Agence France Press (AFP) have reported is misinformation based on official news reported by governmental affiliated sources, such as, ISNA the so-called Iranian Students News Agency which contributed for several years in the propagation of the sham theory of reforms made from whitin the regime.
A detailed study of these two agencies of European origin's precedent reporting and comparison with what is the confirmed trend followed by Iranians can show better how these so-called neutral reporting tools have become in reality the mouthpieces of the Islamic regime by fear of getting expelled or by following interests of EU members.
