lies and fabrications of Al-Arabiyya TV

The story of the lies and fabrications of Al-Arabiyya TV, the news station of King Fahd's brother-in-law, is unending. Yesterday, they were blasting with a story about the defection of Bashshar's key propagandist, Buthayna Sha`ban.  The story was attributed to a Hariri paper in Lebanon, Al-Liwa', which has a reputation lower than that of the National Inquirer in the US.  But when the story was clearly revealed to be false, the news website simply--and typically--erased it from the site.
