How the Brits cover news

So, I've concluded we don't have News here in the US we have gossip and kittens caught in trees. You, my wise internet readers, already knew this of course.
None the less I thought it would be interesting to point out that the reporter cuts through diplo-talk: "even referring to their meetings as full and frank, which is normal diplomatic code for an argument."
And they aren't afraid to call a pig wearing lipstick a pig: "Correspondents say Mr Bush used familiar language, including soaring rhetoric on the subject of good and evil, while Gordon Brown was much more specific, detailing a long list of what the two men had talked about."
Peace,
Chris
