Saudi-funded homophobia. I know how well US media (especially Washington Post and New York Times) love the Saudi Al-Arabiya news channel. On its internet site, Al-Arabiya leads with this headline: "The US Vice-president's daughter publicly admits that she is 'sexually deviant.'" I still remember WP's David Ignatius quoting Al-Arabiya's director describing his news channel as "professionalism, professionalism, professionalism."
