Mini-Movie Review: Control Room

What's it about?
A chronicle which provides a rare window into the international perception of the Iraq War, courtesy of Al Jazeera, the Arab world's most popular news outlet. Roundly criticized by Cabinet members and Pentagon officials for reporting with a pro-Iraqi bias, and strongly condemned for frequently airing civilian causalities as well as footage of American POWs, the station has revealed (and continues to show the world) everything about the Iraq War that the Bush administration did not want it to see.

How was it?
Yet another documentary that did not disapoint. Fascinating expose about the flip-side of amarican journalism during the first year of the Irak War. At a time when governments often control and spin news stories to their advantage, this was an fascinating piece to see. I highly recommend it. It was made by one of the co-directors of Start-up.com

I give this 8 headlines out of 10.
