PEJMAN YOUSEFZADEH WONDERS why Western media are paying so little attention to the demonstrations in Iran, when those demonstrations might topple the mullahs and demonstrate the effectiveness of the Bush Administration’s strategy in . . . Oh, hell, never mind. Some questions answer themselves.
UPDATE: From the comments to Pejman’s article:
The reason for the lack of press coverage is simple, if you remember back to CNN and Iraq: covering these protests would mean making the mullahs mad, and the press would then lose their access to Iran. It’s more important to have access than to have the story.
It’s the Eason Jordan effect!
