When one of their reporters was caught saying blatantly false things about Hezbollah in Lebanon, she replied that he wasn't to blame for making it up, but rather for being too credulous in believing his sources. And the reason for that isn't that it's the duty of a good reporter to check his facts--hell knows that there's hardly a reporter around who does that anymore--but because Arabs are known liars.
As one of our sources put it: "The Arab tendency to lie and exaggerate about enemies is alive and well among pro-American Lebanese Christians as much as it is with the likes of Hamas."
Uh-huh. Looks like the American tendency to demonize other races is alive and well, too.
