Control Room
On my way to Europe last week, I finally got time to watch some movies. One of them was Controol Room, a documentary directed by Jehane Noujaim and presenting Al Jazeera’s coverage of the 2003 invasion of Irak. It serves as a powerful reminder that all media are biased, and that one should listen to as many voices as possible in order to form an educated opinion, especially regarding such highly important topics. The presentation of events leading to Tareq Ayyoub’s death is particularly disturbing, and Lt. Josh Rushing strikes me as a very decent guy. Eventually, he joined Al Jazeera English.
