> Much of the corporate and public media. Like who? I know that CNN has almost 24 hours of pro-war coverage. > The “corporate media” largely didn’t, You are going to need some sort of citation from an "authoritative source" to be credible about this claim</sarc> > “The truth was buried under enormous heaps of propaganda” is just revisionism because its more comforting to believe that the truth was hidden than that the people of an advanced democracy would en masse ignore the truth when it was right in front of their faces and rush to war anyway. This sounds like revisionism though. Not to say it's inaccurate, as revisionism often is effective at deriving more perspectives than "authoritative" history. You can also apply the truth being "right in front of their faces" for many controversial contemporary issues, where an opinion of "authoritative sources" is pushed on the public. Interesting note, many of those who thought critically of the WMD policy are thinking critically today about policies foisted upon us from the other "side" of the political spectrum.
