Pentagon's Propagandists and the Media

Posted: May 1, 2008 Thu 11:37 am     Views: 187    Interacts: 1

Sometimes I wonder how similar the US mainstream media is becoming to Tass and Pravda in the Soviet Union's golden days.

After some angry comments from readers, NBC NEws' Brian Williams defended the administration whores AKA "Independent Military Analysts" here:

Glenn Greenwald drills Brian a new one here:

Greenwald's piece is worth reading in its entirity.

UPDATE for Atif2: Greenwald is a "Zionist". Beware!
