REDS MAKE NEWS AROUND THE WORLD

Images from Wednesday's red shirt anti-government demonstrations made the front pages of newspapers around the world yesterday.
The graphic images of protesters' attempts to enter parliament made newspaper front pages in Austria, Belgium, Germany and Italy, as well as closer to home in Malaysia and Singapore. And these are just front pages; there was more coverage inside many publications.
Many stories include what can only be described as over zealous reporting, and in some cases what's been reported is simply not true. Take The Star in Malaysia as one example. It's headline 'Thai Curfew' reported Bangkok was under a midnight until 6am curfew. Simply amazing, and simply not true.
