Summary
Hersch is a regular contributor to The New Yorker magazine. His article "The Redirection: Is the Administration's New Policy Benefiting Our Enemies in the War on Terror?" is in the current edition (March 5) of the magazine. It's about the administration's efforts to undermine Iran and its shift in priorities to do so. Hersch exposed the Abu Ghraib prison scandal in 2004, in a series of articles published in the magazine early in 2005. He has been the recipient of the Pulitzer Prize, five George Polk Awards, two National Magazine Awards, and a dozen other prizes. He is also the author of eight books including Chain of Command about Abu Ghraib. Then, Bergman is the producer of the new Frontline documentary, News War: Secrets, Spin, and the Future of the News. The four-part series is about the mainstream news media and the political, legal and economic forces on it. The third installment, about how the mounting pressure for profits, declining advertising, and Internet competition is affecting the news business, airs Tuesday, Feb 27 on most PBS stations. Bergman is a contributor to the New York Times. [Broadcast Date: February 27, 2007]
