BBC’s ‘impartiality’ report ignores the war

Peter Wilby demolishes the BBC’s awful report on impartiality last week, which is blind, in Wilby’s words, to the fact that: “If ever there was an example of a lapse from balance, open-mindedness and rigour, it occurred in the run-up to the Iraq war, when the BBC accepted Saddam had WMDs, despite former UN inspectors saying he had been fully disarmed.”

MWAW do a good summary of war on terror lies

Plus Scuba's site has some good examples and info on media ownership
(see media coverup and war on terror)

More historically worth being aware of

The CIA's Operation Mockingbird and the "Office for Public Diplomacy" which pumped out anti-sandanista scary stories during the contra years

The Office of strategic initiatives

Office of Strategic Influence

Coalition Information Center now replaced by the Office of Global Communications

What I would like to see is more information/research on the private companies that support these propaganda set-ups. Such as the Rendon Group.

Sourcewatch/PRwatch and FAIR are a good resources

Can anyone recommend good public speakers who are knowledgeable on this stuff (the state's manipulation of the media past and present) to talk at the forthcoming event in Sept?
