American, or Arab-American?

The biased American media loves terror and hates Bush -- here's more proof, from VDare.

Regarding the Arab-American, Bush-hating terrorist bastard (er, sorry, "American") currently on trial in Virginia:

Chances of getting this blunder fixed are not high if the dishonesty and lack of integrity of the media’s handling of the facts are anything to judge by. Consider the introductory descriptions:

“An American Student” -San Francisco Chronicle

“A 23 year old American” - New York Daily News

“A Virginia Man” - Newsday

“A Virginian” - Los Angeles Times (Take that Robert E. Lee!)

“A US citizen” - Chicago Tribune

“A Houston native and Virginia high school valedictorian” - Houston Chronicle (A twofer of misrepresentation – he only spent a couple of years after birth in Houston and his high school was distinctly unusual.)

Given the factual subtleties here, it does take a certain amount of journalistic professionalism to present the truth. The overseas media did the job:

“Arab-American” The Scotsman

“An American citizen of Arab descent” - The Australian

While America’s Big media are too craven or dishonest to state facts accurately, how can the country’s immigration (or Middle Eastern) problems be addressed?
