| Document:Filtering Sources On The Syrian War | article | 4 February 2014 | Propaganda Corporate media 2011 Syrian Insurgency | A cogent demonstration of the gross bias of the mainstream media in its coverage of the ongoing 2011 Syrian insurgency. It shows that they are immune to any lessons of their similarly mendacious reporting both before and during the 2003 Iraq war |
