How far did mainstream media go to make the case for War in Iraq?
On Wednesday, April 25, attend An Evening with Bill Moyers house party to watch his newest documentary, "Buying the War," and discuss the issue with the veteran television journalist. Just before the screening, Moyers will be available to answer your questions during an exclusive conference call with (Northampton based) Free Press activists around the country.
This powerful documentary shows how the media were complicit in shaping the "public mind" toward the war, and asks what has happened to the press’ role as skeptical "watchdog" over government power. The program features the work of some intrepid journalists who didn’t take the government’s word at face value.
Don’t miss this chance to connect with others in your community who are concerned about the state of our media.
