The Speech Misheard Round the World

"Yet while these inconsistencies may not bother the president's followers or harm his standing in America, they matter to the rest of the world. Few foreigners are even aware of America's hybrid conception of freedom, much less accepting of it. In most of the rest of the world, the president's inaugural address was heard merely as hypocrisy."
Heard as hypocrisy? Heard?
Well, if that's the case, then I think Hitler was misunderstood, and the media really did him in.
This kind of reasoning makes me a bit shamed to use words at all.
