This critically-acclaimed documentary exposes how the foreign policy interests of American political elites work in combination with Israeli public relations strategists to exercise a powerful influence over news coverage of the Middle East conflict. Combining American and British TV news clips with the insights of analysts, journalists, and political activists, Peace, Propaganda and the Promised Land provides an historical overview, a devastating comparison of U.S. and international media coverage, and an examination of the factors that have distorted U.S. media reporting and American public opinion. Featuring interviews with Noam Chomsky, Hanan Ashrawi, Robert Fisk, and Rabbi Michael Lerner, among many others
Interviews with: Hanan Ashrawi, Noam Chomsky, Robert Fisk, Sut Jhally, Michael Lerner, Alisa Solomon, Lorraine Ali, Dennis Bernstein, Noura Erakat, Ned Hanauer, Eyad Kishawi, Elias Rashmawi, Jason Vest, Alison Weir, and others
