Amy Goodman on Media in a Time of War

In the months before the U.S. led invasion of Iraq, many Americans found themselves scratching their heads. Why was the media parroting the official line, without asking the tough questions we were asking ourselves?

Join Link TV for our special presentation, "Media in a Time of War," as we examine the role of the U.S. press in fomenting conflicts -- both past and present. Veteran columnist Robert Scheer will host as we interview media critic Norman Solomon, and air a portion of the film, "War Made Easy: How Presidents & Pundits Keep Spinning Us to Death." We'll also broadcast a Link TV exclusive: Democracy Now! host Amy Goodman delivering the keynote address at the Solar Living Institute's SolFest 2007.

DON'T BOTHER WITH LINKTV!

ALL THEY DO IS TELL THE WORSE LIES.

THOSE THAT ARE CLOSEST TO THE TRUTH JUST SO THEY CAN GET YOU

INVOLVED IN A PROGRAM AND THEN CUT OFF THE LAST FEW MINUTES OF IT TO BEG FOR MONEY!!!

THEY WASTE YOUR TIME AND ENERGY WHILE THEY CRYBABY ABOUT ALL THE PROBLEMS OF THE WORLD WHEN THEIR AS GUILTY AS ANYONE IN PERPETUATING THOSE PROBLEMS!!!

THEY USE THESE COMMON PROBLEMS TO BEG FOR MONEY THAT THEY SPEND HELPING TO FURTHER THOSE SAME PROBLEMS.

BITING THE HAND THAT FEEDS THEM.

If somebody could get a company going like an internet company I would gladly donate some money to get it going.

It should be known that, in addition to being a longtime columnist, Bob Scheer is also a longtime Communist. His brilliant and agile mind saw the wonderous services people like Fidel Castro, Mao Zedong, Ho Chi Minh and Kim Il-sung brought to their respective nations and tried to import those totalitarian values to the United States. Thank God he failed.
