Bill Moyer's Journal and the Bushco/Media Buildup to Their War

Bill Moyers Journal last night pieced together the reporting that shows how the "News" media were complicit in shaping the "public mind" toward the war, and ask what's happened to the press' role as skeptical "watchdog" over government power. I watched most of it but I'm at work so I'll have to save my comments till later (hopefully). The Knight Ridder guys were good, there's STILL some reporters left in America. The former CNN head and Tim Russert are whores, naturally. Anyway here's a clip.

Digby does some nice rounding out here.
And Glenn Greenwald gives some excellent background and meaning here.
