EU HQ bugged

I just spotted on the BBC breaking news that electronic bugging devices have been discovered at the EU HQ in Brussels. It's been confirmed that they were found in the offices used by French and German delegations, but more devices have been found in other offices. Le Figaro reported this news first, and was quick to blame the USA. Though, of course, officially no particular country or organisation has been accused.

Also check out Reuters and CNN. I notice that neither CNN nor CBS reported Le Figaro's accusation that the USA is behind the wiretapping.

Well, fair play. Le Fig isn't always the most scrupulous of news services. They've been known to go for sensation and get it wrong.
