The Listening Post - The 'hearts and minds' of Operation Moshtarak - Part 1

Operation Moshtarak was more than a military offensive. It marked a significant change in the way Nato and its allies deal with the media and handle their public relations. The Listening Post goes back to the Afghanistan war story and shows the change in the way it is being told - to the Afghans affected and news audiences around the world. Plus, Iceland's bid to bring together some of the most progressive media laws from around the world to create one holistic law that will position the north Atlantic country at the forefront of the battle to protect journalists, whistle blowers and their sources from legal action.
