Hello.
I just found a video about the US coverage of the middle east conflict. The video does not concentrate on a isolated conflict like the new Libanon crisis, but tries to give an overview over the middle east conflict since the 1960s and compares the US media's coverage of the conflict to the international coverage.
The video is thus quite lenghty and plays for about 75 minutes. Thus you should take your time to watch it.

In a different forum this has raised interesting opinions. The US people now, due to broadband technology, have the possibility to overcome the US private media and recieve new views of the things that happen in the world. That is surely a great achievement and hopefully the US people use this to gain an own opinion about what their country does and how it influences the rest of the world.
I'd suggest to tell other people about this video. Not because it might be the absolute truth, there is no such thing, but because it will make you raise questions, because it will teach you to ask for more information after hearing a 2 minute report on a matter.
