The only media that remained secular during this crisis in Lebanon are: As-Safir, Al-Akhbar, New TV, and AlJazeera. Only in those media will you find criticisms of both sides--even when sympathies of writers are made clear. Trying to find criticisms of Hariri on, say in An-Nahar or on House of Saud's Al-Arabiya is like expecting to see criticisms of Bush in Washington Times.
