Nobody said that information is >incorrect< - just that one should not
expect >balanced< coverage from sources such as Fox News.

As I wrote (when that text was discussed in t.p.e-u earlier), all the
source that you presented says is that several books recently written by
French authors question or criticize the French government's policy.
What could be wrong with or surprising about that? Several books
recently written by Americans deal with the US war in Iraq, and the
constantly changing reasons presented to justify it, in a pretty
critical way -- have not seen a conclusion such as "Americans Join In on
Anti-US Bandwagon" (cf. Subject header) yet, though ;-)
