Re: malicious (none / 0)
I think you missed my point.  

I was discussing the media's usage of hyperbolic charicature to describe world leaders (ok for Putin, not ok for Bush).  Not whether or not they were reporting the facts...  

Ok, I don't think the BBC has called Bush a "nut."  But they've become a bit less guarded and polite lately.
