US national interests go far beyond some network news propaganda games. If the US wanted to promote ties based on human rights, then it would NOT have a single Arab 30% ally in the Persian Gulf region... AND since a country can NOT play by double standards, then the US can not hold Iran to highest standards of human rights and ignore unlimited human rights atrocities and lack of democracy in some other Persian Gulf countries, also known as (A.K.A.) 30% allies.
On the other hand I would strongly recommend that a Certain International News Network would separate its News Division from the Propaganda and Advertising Division. Such a well known international news network should not let an advertiser dictate news policy! Because once a news network sells it sole which is independence and objective journalism, then it is no longer called a news network but a… who sells to the highest bidder.
