One thing that struck me; why are all the different nations "independent" offices/branches writing about american domestic news?
I'm sure this is a CIA network.

I don't know? Maybe try a 'who is' and see if you pick up any clues. It seems to be a well organized and professional site.

I actually found it by trying to compare Thailand's budget for education this year vs Taiwan's budget. Today was Taiwan National Day and the BKK Post had an insert showing Taiwan's spending on education as a % of total budget. I never achieved my goal as the Thailand data doing searches was 10 years old. One of the Thailand hits came from the above Thailandnews.net site. Pete

I don't know about the Thailand New Network but the affliated Big News Network.Com is incorporated in the United Arab Emirates with their main offices in Sydney, Australia.

Does anyone else know more about this site?

At the very bottom there is a copywrite by MIDWEST RADIO NETWORK. A search on them shows that they are in Sydney as well. I came across the following link going back to last year with people debating a similar issue concerning confusion about who these people really are? I'm starting to believe Noresman may be correct with his observations. Pete
