Operation Iraqi Freedom: The Insider Story with DVDby Marc Kusnetz
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:This book + DVD package written and produced by NBC News presents a chronological narrative of reporting from the field supplemented by interviews and anchored broadcasts from Qatar, Kuwait, and the United States. The DVD contains approximately 2 hours of live coverage of the war broadcast by NBC News, MSNBC, and CNBC. Book News Annotation:Bob Wright opens this work by approvingly quoting an earlier NBC
chairman's offer to put all "of our facilities and personnel" at the
"instant service" of the President of the United States during an
earlier war. That same sentiment sums up NBC's broadcasts during
"Operation Iraqi Freedom," as well as this work, a pictorial
celebration of NBC and its involvement in the American invasion of
Iraq. The experience of the "embedded" war is described in words and
pictures from early preparations in Kuwait to the fall of Baghdad,
complete with the requisite pictures of Iraqi children waving
American flags and American soldiers receiving flowers from the
gratefully "liberated." The side of the war that many regular Iraqis
and a significant number of U.S. soldiers saw (i.e. blood and
non-super-mediated destruction) receives limited attention. The DVD
contains "highlights" of the coverage in addition to postwar
interviews and commentary. Much like NBC's war, it is narrated by
anchor Tom Brokaw.
