Amy Goodman's Speech

WOW. After watching and listening to Amy Goodman's points all I could think of was how much I wasn't aware of every point and topic she was covering. How is it that CNN (U.S) can't show the masses of the horrific acts happening as a result of war. Not only are children being affected, but it's their families, friends and homes. Why is CNN International more understanding about the need to see what is happening, about being transparent, showing a split screen of direct cause and effect relationships? By the end of the video I was an awe of how much research and knowledge Ms. Goodman possessed on the issue of ending war. If only people could visually see the effect of war on people and children, Ms. Goodman predicted that in a week we could eradicate war. It's astonishing that after all we do know and see, that a bigger change isn't being made. That the media/news should be challenged as Goodman says. We can't keep letting news coverage and reporting dwindle so that their reputation is even further tarnished. We need to examine all media coverage world-wide and realize that  what the news is showing us may not be what is actually "seen" from our perspective. That something bigger or badder is at stake.http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6840473009639653689#
