Subject: NYC Event: World Premiere Screening of War Made Easy


FAIR is pleased to host the World Premiere Screening of

War Made Easy:
How Presidents and Pundits Keep Spinning Us to Death

Featuring Norman Solomon
And narrated by Sean Penn

 "The first casualty of war is truth...but it need not be a fatality." - Norman 
Solomon

War Made Easy chronicles how propaganda has been used to sell wars to the 
American people, revealing how governments bent on war-making have relied on a 
vast arsenal of public relations tactics to overcome resistance at home and 
disapproval abroad.  The film finds striking parallels between the spin 
strategies employed by today's pundits and public officials to build support 
for 
the invasion of Iraq, and the information wars waged by earlier 
administrations, 
both Democratic and Republican.

Shattering the illusion that a free press is immune to propaganda, War Made 
Easy 
provides ample evidence of the media's complicity in championing the 
government's case for war.
