Syria invaded by the USA, and the biased MSM reporting of it.

Strong evidence of distortion in media’s portrayal of Syrian invasion « Paulitics

Some of you may have read recently (source, source, source, source, source, source, source)
that the United States broke international law on Sunday by violating
the sovereignty of a UN member nation (Syria) without the necessary UN
sanction and without the appropriate legal and moral criteria necessary to justify such an attack without UN sanction.

As an exercise, I decided to look at how the mainstream U.S. media
covered the incident.  For the purposes of this exercise, I took
mainstream media to consist of: CNN, FOX News, LA Times, Washington
Post, NPR, USA Today, NY Times¹ and Time Magazine.
