Scott Horton Interviews Larisa Alexandrovna 2 of 5 (12thMarch2010)

Larisa Alexandrovna, Managing Editor of investigative news for RawStory, discusses the lies told about the US push for war with Iraq in Karl Roves new book, how the Bush administration fixed the facts around their Iraq policy, US bellicosity on Iran that is meant to assuage Israels fears of a competing regional power, Russian geopolitical successes against lightweight US strategists, why purple fingers are not necessarily indicative of democracy, the medias obsession with balance at the expense of presenting facts or telling the truth and the difficult task of assigning appropriate blame to the public and media for complicity in Iraq War lies.
