The Angry Arab:
"There is no question that the Western press is far more eager and enthusiastic about protests in Syria and Iran because the repressive governments there are not puppets of the US--or not yet. So the BBC had an extensive report on Syria yesterday and began with a headline in the news round up saying: hundreds of protesters took to the street in Damascus. So when the BBC correspondent came to speak to the anchor, she was asked: how big was the protest? She answered rather defensively--fearing of disappointing: there were a hundred or maybe a 140 protesters. "
