Methinks arendt's idea of a wire service is great, and make sure that
it provides the most accurate image of american news, with
historically integrated journalism... that knows the "whole" truth
about lebannon, and is historically literate regarding israel,
wars in asia, The "liberty" incedent, operation "home run" (flying
a wing of bombers over russia in a fake attack (unannounced). I
think it is less that the corporate news does not tell truths, but
rather makes things that have historical origins and realities compressed in to simplistic soundbites.

The economist puts it eloquently regarding the worthiness of the
book by frum and pearle:


"This makes the reader wonder whether the boldness of the
neo-conservative adgenda is rooted - as they see it - in clear
thinking, plain talking and moral courage, or whether it arises
from reckless disregard for complexity, shades of grey or the
possibility of unintended consequences."
