Hi Aaron, Thankyou for your Olympics article. Even though much of it was the same stories we are hearing everywhere, I like that you managed to make the observation through it that whilst these are certainly the Propaganda Olympics (you can put your TM there if you want) it is hardly exclusive to these games, and Australia itself employed many dubious techniques during its moment in the sun. How easy it is to criticise a communist state without also looking at the manipulations of our own. Miriam Thanks Miriam, Agreed! That doesn't cancel out the issues, mind you, but they're issues that are wider than one country. Very similar to the last few years of attacking Islamic propaganda, from within the Western propaganda media, like Fox, etc. Cheers, Aaron
