Media Reform is probably the most important issue (See Video)
Look how US mainstream media is basically ignoring the news that the 15 British sailors detained by Iran last year were not in Iraqi waters (this is just the latest example of US mainstream media malpractice):
UK Gov't Caught in Apparent Lie Over Sailors Captured by Iran
ShortNews.com, Germany
"According to British military documents obtained under freedom of information laws, the 15 British sailors detained by Iran last year were not in Iraqi waters, as the government claimed, but in disputed waters that Iran claimed."
Des Browne ‘misled MPs over seizure of British sailors in the Gulf’
Times Online, UK
"The Defence Secretary has been accused of misleading Parliament over the capture of 15 British sailors and Marines in the Gulf last spring ... Mr Browne has told the Commons repeatedly that the patrolling Britons, who were held for a fortnight and paraded on Iranian television, were seized boarding a vessel in “Iraqi waters”."
‘UK sailors were in disputed waters’
Howrah News Service, India
Captured UK sailors were not in Iraqi waters, documents confirm
"Fifteen British sailors and marines captured by Iran last year were not in Iraq's maritime territory as the UK government claimed, official documents released under the Freedom of Information Act confirm. "
Islamic Republic News Agency, Iran
I didn't learn about this from US mainstream media, I learned about it from tinyrevolution.com: The Times of London has gotten the British government to cough up documents on the incident last March where Iran seized British sailors and held them for several weeks.
