Since Tuesday and until this morning the May 30 edition of the liberals’ Globe and Mail sat on our coffee table. So last night, for example, I was forced to catch a glimpse of the cover and it’s awful headline every few minutes while trying to watch our Canadian girl trying to girl win America’s great national spelling bee (which they kindly allowed our Canadian girl to participate in).
What distracted me most was that headline, which I kept changing in my mind to a more appropriate one—or one I thought they should really have instead.
So this morning I changed it with a felt pen. You do what you can to stay sane.
But then this morning as if on cue, this (at left) was their cover, on a day after egregious violence had erupted in Lebanon with thousands of terrorist Hebollah supporters rioting all over and general mayhem occurring in a country beset by such things. 
The Lebanon story doesn’t make their front page at all whatsoever. It’s buried deep within the pages. It’s not anti-American but is just as important to the overal story of dangerous unrest in that part of the world.
Hezbollah supporters riot over TV comedy
Beirut — Thousands of Shiite Muslims enraged by a TV comedy that mocked the leader of Hezbollah took to the streets of southern Beirut on Thursday night, burning car tires and blocking roads, police and witnesses said.
The trouble began after an actor spoofed Sheik Hassan Nasrallah, wearing the Hezbollah leader’s trademark black turban and sporting a similar beard and spectacles on a TV show on Lebanese Broadcasting Corp, a privately-owned channel.
Thousands of Hezbollah supporters went into the streets of southern Beirut, the stronghold of Hezbollah. They carried pictures of Sheik Nasrallah and shouted support. They blocked the road to the airport, but officials said the country’s only air facility remained open.
It’s things like that that inform me about the liberal media and tell me that it’s agenda-driven.
