Blogging Baghdad.

As I was trying to get into the truth of all the hype about Iraq occupation by America I came across a very interesting site. A totally different perspective from journalist reporting from Baghdad, this blog made me wonder if all the news we hear on the main stream media are indeed fabricated to such an extent.

Sometimes when you tell a lie thousands times people tend to believe it’s the truth, and I think that’s what happened in this Iraq occupation and many other stories in history. There is this particular entry on “Baghdad Burning” which caused a lot of emotional stir in me. riverbend blogspot

It brought my attention to many other stories we hear on TV and Radio. As a communication student for years now, I am aware of how the media gate keeping
can control the news headlines. But it is imperative that each one of us do not just take what is served and choose to do our reading. Now we have another medium to resort to. For more stories on Iraq occupation from a “different” perspectives, log onto different perspectives on Baghdad

Is there any other interesting news blogs that you have read recently, share it here with me.
