US Media and the
Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
This pivotal video exposes how the foreign policy interests
 of
American political elites--working in combination with Israeli
public relations strategies--exercise a powerful influence over news
reporting about the Middle East conflict. Combining American and
British TV news clips with observations of analysts, journalists,
and political activists, PEACE, PROPAGANDA & THE PROMISED LAND
provides an historical overview, a striking media comparison, and an
examination of factors that have distorted U.S. media coverage and,
in turn, American public opinion.
Interviewees include Seth Ackerman, Mjr. Stav Adivi, Rabbi Arik
Ascherman, Hanan Ashrawi, Noam Chomsky, Robert Fisk, Dr. Neve
Gordon, Toufic Haddad, Sam Husseini, Hussein Ibish, Robert Jensen,
Rabbi Michael Lerner, Karen Pfeifer, Alisa Solomon, and Gila Svirsky.
