Fools for Scandal
by Gene Lyons
Lyons, a columnist for the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, shows how The New York Times led, and the rest of the nation followed, in its coverage of Whitewater. This book examines the motives and the facts that have kept Whitewater in congressional hearings for a record two years and on the front pages of national newspapers since 1992.
Book
9-11 [neuf-onze]
by Noam Chomsky
Based on a composite of interviews conducted in the aftermath of the September 11th attacks, Chomsky, one of America's most esteemed and influential radical thinkers, uses his impeccable knowledge of globalisation and US foreign policy in the Middle East to shed light on Osama bin Laden and the long-term implications of America's military attacks abroad. Speaking out against responding to violence with violence, as such tactics only succeed in undermining democracy in any meaningful form, he demands policies of a more long-term, humane and honorable nature.
