And what makes that war MEGO is the utter unwillingness of big J journalism to allow anti-war movements to reach large audiences through mainstream news. The narrow range of debate and viewpoints given legitimacy or even representation by big-J journalism assures the continuance of the war(s). Rather than the story being 'too big and complex' big J journalists and the mainstream news entities they work for are part of or aligned with the war makers. After all, journalists can't get Big by alienating their Big Media bosses or Big Insider sources. The problems of this story are also, um, the war in Afghanistan?
