Sky News, another major UK network, might say "US soldiers killed in clashes with Iraqi insurgents".
On the very exact same story, a US network like FOX would say "AL-QAEDA ATTACKS AND KILLS AMERICANS"
It's so ridiculous it would be hilarious if it wasn't so serious. I can see if the American public is constantly subjected to reporting like that it would have an impact.

Very true, some of my own family(non-muslims), my mom's side, watch that stuff and have these crazy questions which aren't crazy when you understand the stuff they are watching...it is amazing.
