From what I can remember, the notable exception was Knight Ridder¹ who drew a lot of flak for investigating the fabricated stories being used to justify attacking Iraq.
In Ireland, the major media outlets accepted (mostly, uncritically) the claims of the neo-cons (I don’t remember them treating seriously the reports of UN weapons inspectors who were actually on the ground in Iraq). The only dissenting voice I remember in the mainstream media was Robert Fisk, writing for the British Independent.
