From the Author:
My primary motivation to write a book about this subject was to address the fundamental gap in worldview, perception, and communication between the West and the Arab World. The media coverage of the Iraq War provided a fitting case study of how this gap can be created through the distribution and framing of information.War coverage is not merely a dry representation of conflictingviewpoints. It is infused with flesh, blood, and emotion. The triumph of the orchestrated image andwar-as-spectacle, which thrills and entertains some people, means also that viewershave become direct participants, as war outcomes are partly decided in livingrooms.
