About the film: "WAR MADE EASY: How Presidents and Pundits Keep Spinning us to Death"

From the Gulf of Tonkin to Saddam's WMDs, "WAR MADE EASY" shows how the U.S. government has repeatedly manipulated the press and exploited the patriotism of citizens to further a war agenda. The documentary is based on the book written by Norman Solomon, is narrated by Sean Penn, and produced by the Media Education Foundation.
