DESCRIPTION:Film: War Made Easy\nHow Presidents & Pundits Keep Spinning Us to 
 Death.\nNarrated by Sean Penn\n\nSaturday August 11th 3:00pm\n2017 Mission 
 Street #200\nSan Francisco, CA 94110\nDonations requested\n\nWar Made Easy 
 reaches into the Orwellian memory hole to expose a 50-year pattern of 
 government deception and media spin that has dragged the United States into 
 one war after another from Vietnam to Iraq. Narrated by actor and activist 
 Sean Penn, the film exhumes remarkable archival footage of official 
 distortion and exaggeration from LBJ to George W. Bush, revealing in 
 stunning detail how the American news media have uncritically disseminated 
 the pro-war messages of successive presidential administrations.\n\nWar 
 Made Easy gives special attention to parallels between the Vietnam war and 
 the war in Iraq. Guided by media critic Norman Solomon’s meticulous 
 research and tough-minded analysis, the film presents disturbing examples 
 of propaganda and media complicity from the present alongside rare footage 
 of political leaders and leading journalists from the past, including 
 Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, Defense Secretary Robert McNamara, dissident 
 Senator Wayne Morse, and news correspondents Walter Cronkite and Morley 
 Safer. http://www.warmadeeasythemovie.org/\n\n
