Hi everyone,

Heads-up on an important Frontline series
beginning tonight, tackling media and its handling of the run-up to war (oh
boy):

    Feb 13 | News War: Secrets, Sources & Spin (Part I)

    Correspondent Lowell Bergman examines the relationship
between the Bush administration and the press; the controversies surrounding
the use of anonymous sources from Watergate to the present; and the unintended
consequences of the Valerie Plame investigation -- a confusing and at times
ugly affair that ultimately damaged both reporters' reputations and the legal
protections they thought they enjoyed under the First Amendment.

    Feb 20 | News War: Secrets, Sources & Spin (Part II)

    The series continues with a look at the legal jeopardy
faced by a number of journalists. Correspondent Lowell Bergman interviews
reporters facing jail for refusing to reveal their sources and asks how much
the press can reveal about secret government programs in the war on terror
without jeopardizing national security. FRONTLINE examines how much of this
battle is politics and whether such reporting actually harms national security.

    Feb 27 | News War: What's Happening to the News (Part
III)

    The third part of News War puts viewers on the front
lines of an epic battle over the future of news. Correspondent Lowell Bergman
talks to network executives, journalists, Wall Street analysts, bloggers, and
key players at Google and Yahoo! who are all battling for survival and market
dominance in a rapidly changing world of news. FRONTLINE also goes inside the
embattled newsroom of The Los Angeles Times.

    Info on Part IV not up yet.

Warmest regards,
