What´s in the news?

I´ve read an article on the BBC, that the Iranian community in the US and Canada is very keen on e-petitions as a form of protest.
The latest issue to grip Iranian expatriates is the Hollywood blockbuster 300. According to the protesters, it projects an "irresponsible" and "distorted" image of ancient Persia. Iranian bloggers started their campaign against the film a week before its opening.
Iranian bloggers started their campaign against the film a week ahead of its opening.
Bloggers were offended at the way in which the Persians have been shown in the film and the way the battle of Thermopylae has been narrated.
The journalist also mentiones the fact, that some bloggers and commentators have opposed the petition against 300 on the grounds that there are bigger battles to fight.
