Here are the famous 'muckrakers' (Seymour Hersh on My Lai, Woodward and Bernstein on Watergate), as well as the little known (Will Burchett as the first Westerner to enter Hiroshima in August 1945, the Israeli journalist Amira Hass living and reporting from the Gaza Strip in the 1990s); here are the analysts of power (Noam Chomsky and Edward W.

Aussies on my list; SBS TV this Sun 10 April 2011 watch Pilger's THE WAR YOU DON'T SEE. He takes us behind the scenes of "disinformation". see the trailer; http://www.sbs.com.au/documentary/program/thewaryoudontsee/trailer
I want this book. In fact would like to read all of John Pilger's works - he's a journalist to admire and emulate.
