its not current, but there's a book called "understanding power : the essential chomsky" and its incredible, i'm reading about libya at the moment, eerie similarities to whats going on at the moment.

there's also a little book on media/propaganda, not sure what its called, can you remember conor ?

for the most up to date essays try

www.zmag.org and choose the z-net option.
There's a whole section devoted to the old man. The last couple of things he's written have been all around the theme of empire, andthere are some good interviews on the site. Otherwise there's a new video out on G-7 records.

try www.medialens.org as well and an archive search on the guardian website.

It's probably the seven stories press pamphlet called "Media Control: The spectacular achievements of propaganda" Isbn: 1-888363-49-5, because "Manufacturing Consent" is not a little book at all...

the one i read was a wee thing called Media Control. Most of it is oldish but some post Sept. 11th stuff. Nothing on this war though.

Yeah Z-mag is the way to go I say.

Sometimes it's a bit nursery rhyme-like though.

(Hmm..on reflection that statement doesn't even make complete sense to me...)
