Documentary: The War You Don't See
 

Some people getting shot near the start in case anyone would prefer to avoid that. This is a new documentary which investigates the media's role in war.


"A powerful and timely investigation into the media's role in war, tracing the history of embedded and independent reporting from the carnage of World War One to the destruction of Hiroshima, and from the invasion of Vietnam to the current war in Afghanistan and disaster in Iraq.

As weapons and propaganda become even more sophisticated, the nature of war is developing into an electronic battlefield in which journalists play a key role, and civilians are the victims. But who is the real enemy?

John Pilger says in the film: "We journalists... have to be brave enough to defy those who seek our collusion in selling their latest bloody adventure in someone else's country... That means always challenging the official story, however patriotic that story may appear, however seductive and insidious it is.

For propaganda relies on us in the media to aim its deceptions not at a far away country but at you at home... In this age of endless imperial war, the lives of countless men, women and children depend on the truth or their blood is on us... Those whose job it is to keep the record straight ought to be the voice of people, not power.""

I just got back from the therapist. He said the reason I keep posting in shitty threads is because I identify with really shitty thread starters. Huh, go figure.

Who can tell the difference between the In-House GFY Bots and the real posters in this thread? You have to look closely :2 cents:

good to see im posting in a thread with people who are more stupid than me, and I fucking dropped out of highschool.

Only a fool can recognize a fool who recognize another fool.


No, wait... :helpme

Yep, a good watch, well, a bit depressing, but the information is good, and like you say it puts things into perspective as to why our countries are hated, and why it's not "They hate our freedoms" :error

And Bot's can recognize other Bots, in which case maybe I'm a Bot, I'll need to slice open my arm to take a look. Glad that real posters like you arrived in the end :thumbsup

@wehateporn - have you checked out Oliver Stone's untold history of the united states on Showtime? I watched the first one on demand last night

I'm glad my thread is getting bumped. Thanks guys :)

He was my customer at Jaguar, a nice man.

Hey DTK, that's a great one, I watched it a couple of months ago, I might watch again now you've mentioned it :thumbsup

:thumbsup

Bump, why isn't my thread on the top?

I've seen the first four now. Isn't it amazing how people like Henry Wallace get written out of history?
