Complete program at: http://fora.tv/fora/showthread... author John Stauber contrasts domestic and international news coverage in the run-up to the Iraq War. He also calls for greater representation of liberal perspectives in the mainstream media.-----John Stauber offers "The Best War Ever: Lies, Damned Lies, and the Mess in Iraq."Co-author with Sheldon Rampton of the popular "Weapons of Mass Deception" and several other recent books, and founder and director of the Center for Media and Democracy, Stauber reveals the potent cocktail of deceit, arrogance, and wishful thinking that got us where we are today, and further reveals the way in which the media, by refusing to question a good deal of information coming from the Bush administration, has played a significant role. "The Best War Ever" proves that the entire war has been predicated upon willful misinformation and propaganda - and also teaches us how to wake up and not be misled again. - Cody's BooksJohn Stauber founded the non-profit Center for Media and Democracy and its quarterly newsmagazine PR Watch in 1993 and since has served as the Center's executive director. He is an investigative writer, public speaker and democracy advocate.

To be critical of the US administration means we hate America. To be inquisitive about the reasons we go to war means we are homosexuals. There you have it: right wing logic.

Stauber - America media needs a "left component"? LOL!!!! CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, MSNBC are all left-wing news outlets. Get a clue, little fella.

That's why guys like me and Bush watch ESPN and watch the Rangers as well as Fox to stay informed on international events. USA! USA!! USA!!! We're number 37, we're number 37, we're number 37 (in health care... ah wait a minute I need a cartoon book to help me understand this utter chaos.

What if they gave a war and only the bad guys came?

John don't seem to care if there is a nuclear threat against US or not. Perhaps he thinks that Saddam should have remained in power with his nuke ambitions? It would be interesting to see his views on threats and terrorism. He is only talking about the right being dangerous. Saddam was not dangerous? Iranian nukes is not dangerous? Some fools may have agreed with John before 9-11 but they would have been wrong as we noticed on 9-11.
