The war of Information

In the approach of military attacks are the heads of the people taken in the "home front" in the visor. The middle-class media poke within the population the readiness to agree to a war, while wars are sold as humanitarian applications for democracy and human rights. The meaning of the rule about information appears not only in the context of wars, but also in the "reform-political" everyday business.
At the example of the Nato-attack war against Yugoslavia, to the Think tank and media group Bertelsmann and the election campaign support of the newliberal candidate Gonzalo Sanchez de Lozada in Bolivia by the firm of consultants GCS (mountain Green, Carville and Shrum) we indicate the different mechanisms of the manipulation.
