  • CJR - Iraqgate, by Russ W
    CJR - Iraqgate, by Russ W. Baker March/April 1993 | Contents IRAQGATE The Big One That (Almost) Got Away Who Chased it -- and Who Didn't by Russ W. Baker Baker, a member of the adjunct faculty at Columbia University's Graduate School of Journalism, is a free-lance writer who regularly contributes to The Village Voice. Research assistance was provided by Julie Asher in Washington and Daniel Eisenberg in New York. ABC News Nightline opened last June 9 with words to make the heart stop. "It is becoming increasingly clear," said a grave Ted Koppel, "that George Bush, operating largely behind the scenes throughout the 1980s, initiated and supported much of the financing, intelligence, and military help that built Saddam's Iraq into the aggressive power that the United States ultimately had to destroy." Is this accurate? Just about every reporter following the story thinks so. Most say that the so-called Iraqgate scandal is far more significant then either Watergate or Iran-contra, both in its scope and its consequences. And all believe that, with investigations continuing, it is bound to get bigger. Why, then, have some of our top papers provided so little coverage? Certainly, if you watched Nightline or read the London Financial Times or the Los Angeles Times, you saw this monster grow. But if you studied the news columns of The Washington Post or, especially, The New York Times, you practically missed the whole thing. Those two papers were very slow to come to the story and, when they finally did get to it, their pieces all too frequently were boring, complicated,and short of the analysis readers required to fathom just what was going on.

  • Protect Saudi Arabia from the Aggressive Iraqis
    The Persian Gulf TV War Revisited Douglas Kellner (http://www.gseis.ucla.edu/faculty/kellner/) The 1991 war against Iraq was one of the first televised events of the global village in which the entire world watched a military spectacle unfold via global TV satellite networks.1 In retrospect, the Bush administration and the Pentagon carried out one of the most successful public relations campaigns in the history of modern politics in its use of the media to mobilize support for the war. The mainstream media in the United States and elsewhere tended to be a compliant vehicle for the government strategy to manipulate the public, imperiling democracy which requires informed citizens, checks and balances against excessive government power, and a free and vigorous critical media (see Kellner 1990 and 1992). Indeed, if the media do not adequately inform citizens, provide a check against excessive government power and corruption, and adequately debate the key issues of the day, democracy is undermined. Moreover, the U.S. media, especially CNN, completely dominated global coverage of the event. CNN had cameras and reporters in Baghdad throughout the war, a large crew in Israel, and live coverage of all U.S. military and government press conferences. Thus its images, discourses, and material tended to shape global coverage of the event. This meant that the Bush administration and Pentagon was able to control the flow of images and discourses and thus to manage the TV spectacle of the Gulf War.2 In this chapter, I first discuss the production of the text of the "crisis in the Gulf" and then "the Gulf war." This will involve analysis of disinformation and propaganda campaigns by the Bush administration, the Pentagon, and their allies, as well as dissection of the constraints produced by the so-called pool system.

  • The Turtle Bay Security Roundtable
    About this Event The rise of illicit networks facilitating the spread of all manner of contraband, including conventional weapons and dual use WMD technologies, continues to challenge both international peace and security and legitimate business operations around the globe. Although several high profile illicit networks exposed early in the last decade were remarkable for their breadth and scope, they were by no means an anomaly—nor has their dismantlement eliminated the threat. As a result of globalization, modernized transportation infrastructures, and technology democratization, illicit trafficking networks have become a common feature in today’s global commercial environment. The fifth meeting of the Turtle Bay Security Roundtable will update the current state of trafficking networks around the globe, identifying the intersections between their growth and evolution, and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. We will also look at the Arms Trade Treaty, positioning it within a larger context and addressing how the Treaty can be effectively implemented to improve The Turtle Bay transparency and better regulate conventional arms transfers—especially the trafficking of illegal arms. Last, the panel will also consider the ATT’s impact on enhancing export and border control standards which are keys to preventing proliferation of arms as well as other sensitive products and Security Roundtable: technologies. Twenty-First Century Proliferation: The Role of Illicit Networks Featuring Douglas Frantz, The Washington Post About Turtle Bay Security Roundtable Series National Security Editor for the Washington Post The Permanent Missions of Japan, Poland and Turkey have been co-hosting a series of events that focus on various security challenges posed in today’s world.

  • Bayard “Bud” Walters ‘63 Inducted: October, 2018
    Bayard “Bud” Walters ‘63 Inducted: October, 2018 In his DePauw junior year Bayard “Bud” Walters realized he was a lousy Disc Jockey, but that he loved the difference local radio and especially WGRE could make in the community. Thus, he fo- cused on broadcast management and ownership as a possible fu- ture. Over a more than 50 year career Walters’ Cromwell Group, Inc. has developed (many from scratch) over 40 radio stations, and been a launching pad for the careers of young people want- ing to experience media. In that time, he has been a recognized industry leader, receiving the National Radio Award from the National Association of Broadcasters, and being inducted into the broadcast association Halls of Fame for Illinois, Kentucky, and Tennessee. The Broadcasters Foundation of America recognized him as an industry pioneer. Walters describes his 4 years at WGRE as an “extra-curricular activity that was really full-time.” After graduation, he served four years as an Air Force Information Officer, and then returned to Indiana, earning an MBA at IU Business School. One course called for a “dummy” FCC application to build a radio station. Instead, he wrote a real application for a station in the small town of Hawesville, Kentucky. The FCC decision took some time. In the interim, Walters joined Chicago’s Leo Burnett Advertising Agency, learning how media is bought and sold, and about national level marketing. When the FCC granted his ap- plication three years later, he moved to Kentucky to build WKCM. The first staff included Retired DePauw Professor, WGRE Advisor Elizabeth Turnell, and three recent DePauw graduates.
