1. "Judith Miller actively disseminated government disinformation on Saddam"

The western media’s participation in the manipulation of public opinion was one of the highlights of the tribunal, as witnesses like writer Saul Landau pointed to the complicity not only of right-wing press entities like Fox News but also the icons of the liberal press like the New York Times, whose reporter Judith Miller actively disseminated government disinformation on Saddam’s WMD capabilities and whose editorial line continues to be to stabilize the situation in Iraq by sending in many more US troops.

Not surprisingly, at the press conference after the tribunal, jury chairperson Arundathi Roy said, “If there is one thing that has come out clearly in the last few days, it is not that the corporate media supports the global corporate project; it is the global corporate project.”

From The Perfect Storm: the World Tribunal on Iraq in Istanbul by Walden Bello, June 29, 2005:

Ms Miller is a significant root in Bu$h's 'tree of lies.' She's hiding behind the 1st instead of pleading the 5th....


Peace.
