Default OT--Another example of bias in the media

Today's headline:

"Thousands March Against Syria in Beirut"
http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmp.../lebanon_syria


(how many thousand? Estimates are around 800,000)

Last week's headline:
"
Hundreds of thousands turn out to Pro-Syrian demonstration in Lebanon
"
(estimates were anywhere from 200-500,000)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
When the pro-Syrian people marched, the news headlines read "hundreds of
thousands march". When the anti-Syrian folks marched today, the AP headline
merely read "thousands march".
