Film Screening - Wikileaks: The War You Don't See

category cork | rights, freedoms and repression | event notice author Sunday January 09, 2011 15:37author by Eric - WSMauthor email solidaritybooks at gmail dot comauthor address Solidarity Books, 43 Douglas Street, Opposite Fionn Barras, Cork City Report this post to the editors

Documentary-maker John Pilger has returned to a subject that can't be revived often enough: the grotesque untruth of "weapons of mass destruction": a cloudy concept, eagerly amplified and lent credibility by credulous and submissive journalists who, after 9/11, lost their nerve en masse.

Pilger's contention is that on Afghanistan, on Iraq and on Israel and the Palestinian territories, the mainstream media simply take the official line. The force of his film is in its contention that the colossal scale of civilian casualties is, within the grammar of news, downgraded in importance so that it doesn't figure as news at all, but as all-but-invisible deep background to be ignored. Pilger gives due respect to WikiLeaks, although his praise for al-Jazeera's independence is ironic, given that WikiLeaks has just revealed the possibility that the Qatar government is manipulating the channel.

al jazeera may be funded by quatar (they don't hide this. quatar adverts clearly pay the bills and keep it going) but compared to US news, sky news and RTE news, al jazeera and RT are head and shoulders above in terms of journalism and addressing issues conspicuously ignored by other media. Also they have far less annoying sport and celebrity crap wasting newstime.

Watch RT, al jazeera and a little press TV for your tv news (if you must!) and then watch mainstream channels occasionally for fun
