Whilst i don't doubt the ability of keen, young, promotion-seeking journalists and freelance hacks to sensationalise their work or in some (lesser quality) cases fabricate it in order to make profit or fame. Nor do i doubt the ability of teh WB or WTO to source inflamitory press in areas of interest.
I still think an article leading the economist with primary evidence from the United Nations, health care workers and a childless woman with a clearly circumsided vulva is pretty reliable.
