A comparison of major paper headlines of the UN speeches is interesting - Washington Times : "Bush Says Iraq Transition Won't Be Rushed" BBC : "Bush urges unity on Iraq" both quite neutral or positive images I would proffer. but the NZ national paper says - NZ Herald : "Bush rebuked for Iraq invasion", followed by - "Analysts pick apart Bush UN speech" "Iraqis sceptical Bush speech means brighter future" this is a decidedly negative slant - who's correct ? Seems that just like individuals that we all are, newspaper reporters also write it as they see it. All just goes to show how important it is to decide issues for ourselves doesn't it ? |

They both are correct to some degree from what you have printed. Just different takes on what people heard and what they looked for in the speech. |
