The media’s compliance in the bending of the facts that led us into war is the focus of the new movie, “War Made Easy: How Presidents & Pundits Keep Spinning Us to Death”, by Norman Solomon and the Media Education Foundation.

DemocracyNow featured a good part of the new movie on their 5/29/07 broadcast. The media’s role in this war that was started by war crimes should see the media themselves be held accountable in that they let the world down with a lack of basic journalistic practices. Perhaps the internet’s growth of being a news outlet is a result of that and that will be the accountability factor seen by the media. DemocracyNow offers a good portion of the movie featured in a number of different video, audio and text versions.
