"The Pentagon has refined its control of the media to an unprecedented level. Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting, the media watchdog group, looked at the nightly newscasts on NBC, ABC, CBS and PBS in the week leading up to Secretary Powell's appearance before the UN Security Council and in the week afterward. During that period 393 interviews were conducted about war. Of those, only three featured anti-war voices. Three of 393 - that is not a balanced media. That is a media cheerleading for war."
