Bloggers' 'victory' over Iraq war memos

By Kevin Anderson

BBC News website


"Since early May, left-leaning blogs have been trying to get mainstream media to pay attention to one - and now two - leaked secret memos from meetings that Prime Minister Tony Blair had with key cabinet members and intelligence figures in the summer before the war in Iraq.


Bloggers are keen to keep up the pressure

The bloggers believe the memos, leaked to the Sunday Times, show that the Bush administration had made up its mind to attack Iraq and then went about trying to justify it.

With the release of the second memo, blogs can take some credit in raising the profile of the story in the US media.

And Mr Bush's Democratic opponents sense a political opening to attack a now seemingly vulnerable president."
