Fighting Stalls After 'Final Assault' on Tripoli Fails to End War

Heather Murdock

   TUNIS, TUNISIA - Libya has two governments. They are at war with each
   other and both have TV news channels.

   On a channel supporting the Libyan National Army, which controls
   Libya's east, a presenter in military fatigues on Sunday sat in front
   of pictures of soldiers, weapons, and a view the Libyan capital. "We
   are getting inside Tripoli," he said.

   On a channel supporting the Government of National Accord, which holds
   the west, including the capital Tripoli, a spokesperson proclaimed the
   assault had failed, and eastern forces remained in the suburbs. "They
   were not able to enter," he said.
