I don't doubt that the media played a role in demonizing Gaddafi when convenient and rehabilitating him when necessary, but come on man... it's hard to take the guy seriously when every 3rd word of the quoted passage above is a hyperbole, and every sentence contains at least one blatant historical falsity. I'm not even exaggerating here. If anyone played the foremost role in making Gaddafi unlikeable and easy to demonize, it's gotta be the man himself.
