Laurie Mercier interviews Peter Hart about media revisionism about the Iraq War
Laurie Mercier interviews Peter Hart about his recent writings on media coverage and revisionism surrounding the Iraq War. They consider the shifting of blame for instability in Iraq from the US occupation to "age-old ethnic conflicts"; the abscence of coverage of Iraqi suffering; and the way the Iraq War is portrayed as something that "happened to the US".

Peter is the activism director at FAIR (Fairness and Accuracy In Reporting), he writes for their magazine Extra!, and a co-host and producer of their radio-show Counterspin (heard on KBOO every Friday at 5:30pm).
