About the book

From the introduction: "This media war promoted the war it covered...First, it constructed the political environment, contributing to the sense of inevitability about the need for war, and then fostered approval for it. Critical voices quickly vanished as fighting got underway...Our understanding of what happened, our perceptions, points of view, and prejudices, were forged and framed by our media choices."

First sentence: WASHINGTON, NOVEMBER 22, 2002 - The scene atop Cardiac Hill at Marine Corps Base Quantico, Va., was somewhat surreal today.
