Did anyone see today's BBC World broadcast?
I usually watch it on the local PBS station in DC (WETA).

I believe the TV feed is live on WETA at 6 a.m., or, at the very least, it's a very current version of the broadcast.

Except today. WETA showed a re-broadcast of yesterday's BBC World. I notice on the BBC World Web site that they have a written report on yesterday's DSM hearing. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/4101420.stm

If you saw the actual BBC World broadcast today, did they have a report of the DSM hearing on the TV report?

I'm asking because I'm wondering if today's show was intentionally not broadcast on WETA because of DSM.

1. Some great comments there
The real scandal here is the ignorance of the American media to these documents. This once great institution, now led, in my view, by right wing propaganda merchants, is failing its citizens on every possible level. The most powerful country in the world is also the least informed, and its media is to blame.

2. I had it on
I didn't pay that much attention but sure would have noticed if the DSM had been mentioned. A lot about elections in Iran and unrest in one of the Stans.
