Description
Summary:The three gigantic media corporations, the BBC, CNN, and Al-Jazeera, are largely responsible for refining and shaping our views of events in the world. This book deals with their Middle East coverage, particularly the Israeli-Palestinian struggle and the war in Iraq. The picture it paints may not be a happy one for readers who have long taken the "neutrality" and "objectivity" of the three media behemoths for granted.
