Description
War Made Easy reaches
into the Orwellian memory hole to expose a 50-year pattern of
government deception and media spin that has dragged the United States
into one war after another from Vietnam to Iraq. Narrated by actor and
activist Sean Penn, the film exhumes remarkable archival footage of
official distortion and exaggeration from LBJ to George W. Bush,
revealing in stunning detail how the American news media have
uncritically disseminated the pro-war messages of successive
presidential administrations.
War Made Easy gives special attention to parallels between the Vietnam
war and the war in Iraq. Guided by media critic Norman Solomon
