FOX News Controlled By Bush
"America's Fox News network has been demonstrating since the start of the war in Iraq an amazing lesson in media hypocrisy," commented Alper. "The anchors, reporters and commentators unceasingly emphasize that the war's goal is to free the Iraqi people from the tyranny of Saddam Hussein." But this insistent theme represents an "effective, rapid and decisive rewriting of history" in real time, Alper contends.
"The argument about the connection between Saddam's regime and al-Qaeda and the attack on the Twin Towers has disappeared, and the `axis of evil,' which also included Iran and North Korea, has evaporated," notes the Israeli commentator. "There's practically no mention of the stockpiling of weapons of mass destruction and how they were hid from the UN inspectors as being the official reason for the war." Other inconvenient facts "rectified" (using Orwell's term) from Fox's war coverage were "that the U.S. armed Iraq in its war against Iran in the 1980s, or that it turned a blind eye when Saddam Hussein brutally put down a 1991 uprising with chemical weapons after the first Gulf War...."
