“Who scares you more Russia or America?” asks the BBC.
This was a phone in, spotted by Epi-Me, then a 5 Live message board. On the latter, Sarah comments:
The poor punctuation is all theirs, as is the following discussion starter:
“The leaders of the world’s most powerful countries are meeting in Germany amidst growing tension between Russia and the West. There’s talk of a new cold war as Presidents Bush and Putin exchange rhetoric about American plans to site a missile defence system in the Czech Republic and Poland. The Americans say they’re just protecting all of us from a future threat from a so called rogue state like Iran or North Korea – but the Russians clearly feel threatened and have said they’ll re-target their nuclear missiles at Europe.
…
I guess they needed to do a little test to see how well all that time they spend whipping up anti-Americanism is paying off.
Not necessarily that well. The first comment said, “Apart from this being World News, it looks like another attempt to take a story (any story) and ask a loaded question designed to stir up anti-American comments.”
