Press TV, (http://www.presstv.ir) is the first Iranian international news network, broadcasting in English.

"Their global Tehran-based headquarters delivers UNBIASED reporting of controversial global news, and aims to adduce IN-DEPTH AND COMPLETE analyses of current affairs."

I have been looking at articles from this site for quite a while now.

Just today:

"Low turnout as Iranians head to polls"

http://www.presstv.ir/detail.aspx?id=47479&sectionid=351020101

"Polling stations overwhelmed by High Turnout"


And just a typical headline about 'Palestine':

"Olmert vows to continue Gaza holocaust"

P.S. Notice the average length of any given article, and the use of 'Zionist Regime' in reference to Israel.
Also interesting are the polls (all options conspicuously one-sided - funny), and the selective news coverage regarding the US.

Opinions?
