FILM PREMIERE — THIS FRIDAY! September 28, 2007

The Media Education Foundation invites you to the Northampton premiere of
Its critically acclaimed new film:

WAR MADE EASY: How Presidents & Pundits Keep Spinning Us To Death Featuring
Norman Solomon | Narrated by Sean Penn

War Made Easy offers a riveting indictment of five decades of U.S. media

archival footage to make the case that American presidents of both parties
have relied upon deceptive rhetoric and a complicit Washington press corps
to win public support for successive wars.

well-crafted film”, the Nation magazine described as “chilling and
persuasive” and the San Francisco Chronicle praised as “a genuine
eye-opener and an “expertly edited and researched documentary that offers
a searing critique of how administrations over the past 40 years have
manipulated the media to build support for war”.
