Not what I was thinking...
More along the lines that CNN sanitizes the effects of war.
All media is propoganda. Even this media.
Whatever the pictures is that we are getting it is never accurate to the
reality.
There is only an illusion of objectivity. We participate in the illusion.
War is propogated by myth and story.
Whatever we think is going on it must be something else.
