This episode focuses on how the United States is represented in the world's media, and how the world is (mis)represented within our own nation. The feature segment, hosted by former Al Jazeera producer Robb Wood, takes a look at the lack of availability of Al Jazeera English in the U.S.; another installment of 'The Media Encyclopaedia'; an animated 'News Junkie'; and an interview with BBC executive producer and creator of 'BCC World News America' Rome Hartman, regarding international vs. U.S. context within news stories.
A fresh, unapologetic and frequently very funny perspective on a variety of issues affecting accurate, balanced reporting from leading news outlets.
