Journalism & Iraq

2003-09-17 18:35:50.734596+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

John Burns on journalism in the context of Iraq:

There is corruption in our business. We need to get back to basics. This war should be studied and talked about. In the run up to this war, to my mind, there was a gross abdication of responsibility. You have to be ready to listen to whispers.

Essentially the same questions I asked when I linked to Eason Jordan's admission of collaboration, but with the perspective of someone actually there.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
