You Are Being Lied To: The Disinformation Guide to Media Distortion, Historical Whitewashes and Cultural Myths
You Are Being Lied To: The Disinformation Guide to Media Distortion, Historical Whitewashes and Cultural Myths 

SKU: SKU398

This book acts as a battering ram against the blatant distortions, myths and outright lies that have been shoved down our throats by the government, the media, corporations, organized religion, the scientific establishment and others who want to keep the truth from you. An unprecedented group of researchers - investigative reporters, political dissidents, academics, media watchdogs, philosophers, social crityics and rogue scholars - paints a picture of a world where crucial stories are ignored or actively suppressed and the official version of events has more holes in it than Swiss cheese. A world where real dangers are downplayed and non-existent dangers are trumpeted. In short, you are living in a world where you are being lied to.

Contains 68 essays by 60 authors, is 400 pages long and measures 9"x12" - and its absolutely jammed with revelation after substantiated revelation. Russ has assembled a literally unprecedented line-up of investigative reporters, activists, academics, parapolitical researchers, media watchdogs, scientist-philosophers, social critics, and rogue scholars. Many are very well-known: Howard Bloom, Noam Chomsky, Riane Eisler, Jim Marrs, Michael Parenti, James Ridgeway, Douglas Rushkoff, Gary Webb, Howard Zinn, and Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter Sydney Schanberg.

Review from Library Journal:
Containing exposes on topics ranging from Columbus to Columbine, this collection of stimulating articles Disinformation Books' inaugural title challenges popular beliefs on the Big Bang and the depredations of hackers. Kick, a columnist for the Village Voice, has collected an impressive array of articles by such contributors as Sydney Schanberg of the New York Times, in which he asks why John McCain persistently blocks public disclosure of MIA files, and the lesser-known Jim Marrs, a Kennedy conspiracy zealot and freelance journalist who discusses missing data from historical tragedies, including the Lincoln and Kennedy assassinations and the Lockerbie bombing. Do gay teens really constitute a suicidal risk group? Was Jesus a myth? The best articles will surely compel readers to pursue further reading; none should be accepted as exhaustive. Public libraries ought to invest in a copy to keep alongside other sources of skepticism; academic libraries will find the scholarship uneven but provocative.
