WMD is a 100-minute nonfiction film that explores the story through the insights of intrepid media insider turned misfit former Internet reporter Danny Schechter, one of America’s most prolific media critics.
Schechter said he “hidden out” in his living room to monitor media coverage, paying close attention to television coverage every day.
He writes thousands of words of coverage every day for Mediachannel.org, the world’s largest online media topic network, and then compiles his columns, blogs, and articles into a recently published book, Embedded: Weapons of Massive Deception ( Prometheus Books).
He continues his one-man investigation of WMD, a two-hour stand-alone non-fiction book that asks questions his media peers refused to ask before, during and after the war. WMD retraces the February 2004 media war through the lens of Iraq and the media.
