mattlistenerBear this in mind when absorbing news about the war in the coming days: "The American administration want to ensure that their story about the progress of the war and its importance and significance is the one that dominates completely."

One good way to deal is to read google.com news rather than cnn.com or any of the American outfits. If you find a headline in the right ballpark, click on "news stories similar to this" and scan for a source you'd trust.
Google's news sorting is similar to its web-search sorting, with the result that there's a good selection of international and local-paper perspectives amongst the big media. I found the above article through Google news -- you can bet that cnn.com isn't writing any stories about propaganda at home.
