Charles Lewis

Charles Lewis looks at the various ways in which truth can be manipulated and distorted by governments, corporations, even lone individuals, all of whom are seeking to control and maintain power. He shows how truth is often distorted or diminished or completely rewritten. In part a history of communication in America, a cry from the heart for the principles and practice of objective reporting, and an exploration of several notable U.S. government deceptions, His book is an enlightening and frightening expose of the world into which we have all been manoeuvred as honesty and truth have become victims. From Vietnam to Irag and Afghanistan to the ghastly Obama, 935 Lies by Charles Lewis is a must read.
