Mythmaking: The Balkans
Good guys, bad guys, fiercely tribal and deserving of retribution. These are the caricatures to emerge from the misleading news coverage of the conflict in the former Yugoslavia. Join media critics Bill Weinberg of the Balkan War Resource Group and Laura Flanders of Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting as they turn a critical eye on the mainstream media and discuss the consequences of this kind of oversimplified and dramatic coverage. This video also highlights the efforts of individuals and activist groups working to end the war and resist the policies of their nationalistic leaders.
