The Inside Scoop on Syria



                              The Inside Scoop on Syria

Shraga Simmons, author of "David & Goliath: The Explosive Inside Story of Media Bias in the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict" (http://www.amazon.com/dp/0984039805/) brings examples from NBC Nightly News, Vogue magazine, and Diane Sawyer of ABC News.
