Kozachok Zoriana “We reporting it‚ no matter truth it or not” John Pilger’s documentary movie you can’t see because of war he showed in it. It is not a new report about war cruel or lies in mass-media‚ it is a scream in a silent society about extent of our information blindness.

And we always get a lie. How big and
