Am I the only one to find the reporting on this to be rather one sided? Sure we all know Putin is a shady character to say the least, but none in the US or the UK being directly reported on? Germany? France? Instead we get a token gesture in the way of Iceland's PM being implicated.
The Guardian is losing a hell of a lot of credibility in my opinion for having this biased view being published.
I say make all the documents available to the entire world. That is the only way it will be less media propaganda and more a true leak.

- simonw 11y agoDavid Cameron's father is frequently mentioned in the news reporting I've seen.
- Swinx43 11y agoThat is true however it is a very far cry from adequate unbiased reporting. We get lengthy pieces on the "usual suspects" but a mere token gesture for the elite of other countries.

- Swinx43 11y agoYes I saw that however you cannot have the mention of his father be seen as adequate reporting on the misdeeds of the elite.
- deepnet 11y agoYes Cameron answered all allegations regarding this in 2009 so it will make him look tough - storm in a teacup.

- eljimmy 11y agoFrom what I've read, there will be much bigger news related to Western figures coming out of this leak in the near future. puts on tinfoil hat: However, with that said, the organizations behind the release could very well have a hidden agenda as they don't seem to have any intention of releasing the full leak.
- Swinx43 11y agoI really hope that this does happen. I would like to see unbiased reporting about all of the information instead of selective reporting.
