Control Room plot

"Different channels. Different truths."

This documentary paints a picture of the international perception of the war in Iraq, as opposed to that in the United States. It focuses on Al-Jazeera, the most popular news channel in the Arab world. Accused by the Pentagon of delivering news from an overly biased (read: pro-Iraqi) perspective, the station arouses their anger by broadcasting images of civilian casualties and deceased American soldiers.
