Ray McGovern: "Frontline's timid Iraq retrospective"

Robert Parry delivers the original take-down of the latest PBS documentary "Bush's War" that aired early this week. McGovern's article appeared everywhere, but here is the original source. Parry's web site gets it, and McGovern delivers clear criticism of media restraint in Iraq coverage and adds anecdotal accounts of what professional journalists are encountering when covering the vice-president's office. I must add that during the whole four-hour recap on Frontline little if any coverage of the real motivation for this monsterous adventure was given. OIL - and the bloody carnage hasn't produced enough to keep the U.S. from bankrupting itself in the endeavor. Read McGovern's take here.
