More on The Power of Nightmares

Please tell me that by now you have watched this very important BBC Documentary: The Power of Nightmares. If not watch it now!

Then check out this insightful critique (courtesy Matt at pas au-delà) of The Power of Nightmares from Media Lens and Adam Curtis's equally intelligent response--its great to see this kind of dialogical engagement.

I find it interesting that I stumbled across this at precisely the same time you did when the Medialens critique has been out there for a few weeks.

In any case, thanks for keeping on top of this doc. Your prodding finally woke me up and encouraged me to check it out.

Its weird like it builds a crest (like a wave coming toward the beach) and we all start catching it around the same time (a study for a chaos theorist or systems analyst?)...
