World Press coverage of the Middle East
On the 30th of July the Lebanese Red Cross Society published that they had found 28 bodes under the rubble in Qana village, after the Israel A.F. had bomb and destroyed a building that rockets were launched to Israel. At the same time most press releases, world wide were around 60 people dead, hear are some of them: On 31th of July the BBC published that there are 54 dead, on the 30th CBS published that there are more then 50 people dead, on the 30th the Guardian published than more then 60 died. Reuters on August 1st reported of 54 dead, a day before Sky News reported of more than 50, Time Magazine reported the same day of 54 dead,the Washington Post also reported of 54 dead on the same day. The funny thing is that now a few after the number of dead people from Qana is staring to decrees, for example the Guardian published on the august 4th that 28 people died in the Qana bombing. Makes one wonder were those the western press get it's figgers from, looks like from the Hezbollah.
