We Have Updated and Upgraded MediaChannel
New look, more news, more perspectives than ever

Dear Friends,

As is well known, truth is the first casualty of war. In this age of media wars, this is increasingly the case despite all the "breaking news" and instant analysis, which on reflection turns out not be as authoritative as it first sounds. That's why the MediaChannel (www.mediachannel.org) is needed more than ever.

We have responded to this greater need for perspectives on media with an updated and upgraded MediaChannel -- adding a new look and new features: more news, more perspectives and more coverage than ever.

A redesigned front page -- cleaner and more accessible. Media News Now -- from the wires of the Globalvision News Network updated 24/7. Expanded daily interactive weblog analyzing the global coverage of the war and its consequences.

More on the media coverage of the war in our War Peace Monitor Please donate to MediaChannel through Pay Pal, and subscribe to our web log and weekly email media news updates. Tell your friends and colleagues about our work. Turn them on to MediaChannel.

Thanks for joining mediachannel.org and our news revolution.
