Editor(s) at the Salt Lake Tribune did their best imitation of Douglas Feith and the OSP in the Saturday, Feb 10, 2007 paper edition.  In a   front page article dealing with Iran, unsubstantiated information is presented as fact in the headlines, dissenting viewpoints disappear, and caveats and nuances are minimized and hidden.

Catch the war fever being propogated by the selective use of disinformation.

Come on in and watch propoganda being created - Salt Lake Tribune style.

Yesterday, I eagerly scoured the front section of The Salt Lake Tribune for a wire story about Gore's speech on Monday.  Unfortunately, it wasn't there, not on the front page nor buried within the inside pages.  I started composing a letter to the editor expressing my disgust with their failure to run the story.

Luckily, I never got it finished and e-mailed.  For today, when I opened the paper to the editorial section was Rule Of Law staring me in the face.  The subtitle is Al Gore's Speech.

Details below the fold.
