词条 | Winter Soldier: Iraq & Afghanistan |
释义 |
Media coverageThe event was covered by The Washington Post,[1] The Boston Globe,[3] the Boston Herald,[4] BBC World, Newsday,[5] Democracy Now!,[6][7][8] Stars and Stripes,[9] The Real News,[10] Slate,[11] and Salon.com.[12] The Pacifica Radio network suspended regular programming for three days in order to air a live broadcast of the proceedings from March 14 through March 16, 2008, co-anchored by journalist Aaron Glantz, who has reported extensively on the Iraq War and its effects on veterans.[13] Haymarket Books published a book of testimony from the event, Winter Soldier Iraq and Afghanistan: Eyewitness Accounts of the Occupations, co-authored by Glantz.[14] Aside from alternative media, coverage outside the United States was much greater than within the United States. Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting criticized the U.S. media, particularly the New York Times, for its lack of coverage, writing that, "given the common media rhetoric of 'supporting the troops'...to ignore these same troops when they speak out about the horrors of the war is unconscionable".[15] New York Times public editor Clark Hoyt responded that the paper "had not been aware of the group or its meeting", but that even if it had been, it would not have reported on "charges and counter-charges at home by organizations with strongly held political viewpoints about the war".[16] References1. ^1 {{cite news| url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/story/2008/03/14/ST2008031403909.html | work=The Washington Post | title=War Stories Echo an Earlier Winter | first=Steve | last=Vogel | date=March 15, 2008}} 2. ^1 "US War Vets to Speak Publicly About War Crimes", by Aaron Glantz, November 30, 2007 3. ^{{cite news| url=http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2008/03/16/veterans_recall_horrors_of_war_in_live_broadcast/ | work=The Boston Globe | title=Veterans recall horrors of war in live broadcast | first=Anna | last=Badkhen | date=March 16, 2008}} 4. ^http://news.bostonherald.com/news/regional/general/view.bg?articleid=1080667&srvc=home&position=3 5. ^"Local veteran against war", by Rhoda Amon, Newsday (New York), March 13, 2008, p.
