Media Analysis

            
             This report is about the current agreement Iran has made with the UN's International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The basic compromise was that Iran would suspend uranium enrichment and allow UN inspectors unrestricted access to its nuclear facilities. Iran is saying that their nuclear program is strictly a peaceful program designed to produce power for its people. Many nations including the US believe that the program is just a disguise for their nuclear weapons program. The US government has led the action to try to get Iran to stop nuclear production but it took three European foreign ministers who visited Tehran and pressed the demands laid out by the UN's IAEA for Iran to agree to cooperate.
             I picked three somewhat different newspaper articles on the same subject to try to explain the different viewpoints from different agency's and different countries. The Billings Gazette's (Billings, MT) article was titled Iran will suspend uranium enrichment, allow spot checks of its nuclear program. The other US based newspaper I used was The Boston Globe and the name of that article is Pressed, Iran offers nuclear concession. The last article I will be referencing is Iran agrees to checks on nuclear program from the London Free Press.
             Out of all of the articles the one from London is by far the shortest at 261 words. The article seemed to express the notion that it was the US that led all these charges against Iran. While in all three articles they talked about how the US was the one who initially got the ball rolling, The London paper was the only one who stopped there. The Boston Globe article along with the Billings Gazette talked about reactions of other governments from around the world. The Globe article discussed statements made by Foreign Secretary Jack Straw of Britain, Foreign Minister Joschka Fischer from Berlin, Iranian President Mohammad Khatami, and IAEA chief Mohammed Elbaradei.
