A new short documentary called, "Incident in New Baghdad," premieres at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York City on Sunday. The film tells the story of Iraq war veteran Ethan McCord, a soldier who appears in the "Collateral Murder" video rescuing two wounded children.

The director, James Spione, attended an event at Revolution Books in NYC on April 21, 2011. He talks about his initial reaction to the video WikiLeaks released and how he was horrified. But, then he began to pay attention to the media response and found it was pretty much the same on every channel.

  • So true about the fake debates the MSM stage to hide the fact that they are not genuine journalists. I have suffered through them. Like many activists, I learned it is best to decline them rather than lend crediblity to opponents who have none. He says that Ethan McCord's story does not "fit the script" of the MSM so they stay away from him. Yes, and his story validates Bradley Manning's actions, showing that his motives were honorable like Ethan's, not petty and vindictive as they imply.

  • Thanks for documenting this. It will have an even further ripple effect that the world needs.

    Transparency is the Apocalypse...the revolution will be anonymous.
