This story has some serious NPOV problems. First, Rubert Murdoch owns Fox News and Sky News, competitors for the BBC in the British and US market, something which is ommited in the article. So Murdoch clearly has a own agenda there and everything he says should get double checked. The whole usage of words like "disclosed" and "revealed" implies that 1. Blair said all those things and 2. everything he allegedly said is true. --Deprifry 13:05, 18 September 2005 (UTC)Reply

  • I agree, hence chopping most of the POV stuff. :) Of course, the article is now too short but hopefully a fresh pair of eyeballs will come along soon and not turn it back into a soap opera for the News Corporation POV and their anti-BBC agenda. Brianmc 13:15, 18 September 2005 (UTC)Reply
I actually wrote my comments before I saw that you chopped most of it, so that was not directed at you :). Secondly, I tried to neutralize the article a bit to make it clear that Murdoch is the only source. I just hope I didn't overstate that. :) --Deprifry 13:22, 18 September 2005 (UTC)Reply
