In their new book, Reese Erlich and co-author Norman Solomon explore the
realities underlying the arguments for and against the invasion of Iraq and
examine ways the U.S. media have helped market an unprecedented war. In his
talk on April 30th, Erlich will illuminate the history of U.S.-Iraq
relations, dissect the tacit collusion between the Bush administration and
the media, and discuss strategies for dealing with and counteracting media
spin at the grassroots level. Erlich is an award-winning foreign
correspondent and producer for National Public Radio, Canadian Broadcasting
Corporation, The World, and Common Ground Radio, among others.
Part of a new lecture series, "Operation Information Freedom."
