As we attend the International Communications Association in Dresden, we're reminded that journalists have broad discretion in how they frame their stories. Framing goes well beyond simple spin. It's not so much about what facts you present as about how you present them - order, tone, etc all determine the meaning of news. Not even MSM apologists go so far as to deny that they frame stories - they usually just claim that they try to be "objective."
So when Muslim armies take over the capital of a country in a kind of modern-day Islamist Domino Effect, of course there are many different ways to view the situation. Perhaps the Los Angeles Times thinks that headlining the story with "Islamists Sow Calm, and Concern, in Southern Somalia", is the most objective way to describe the situation. Or maybe they're just terrorist apologists who excuse their moral incoherence with self-satisfied and comforting slogans about their own sophistication. Anything's possible.
Next up: "Islamists Sow Calm, and Concern, in Paris".
