UNCOVERED: THE WHOLE TRUTH ABOUT THE IRAQ WAR will be widely distributed
to retail outlets by The Disinformation Company starting March 30th to
coincide with the anniversary of the Iraq War. The controversial grass
roots sensation that has re-energized community activism, UNCOVERED is
priced at just $9.95 in an effort to get the film into the hands of as
many registered voters as possible before the next election.

* Al Franken, best-selling author, on UNCOVERED
"It's one thing for a President to lie about his sex life. It's another to
lie about why we are sending our young men and women into battle."

* Senator Edward M. Kennedy
"UNCOVERED is a devastating analysis of the abuses and distortions of
intelligence used by the Bush Administration in making its case for the
war in Iraq. If the American people and Congress had been told the whole
truth, America would have never gone to war."

* Katrina vanden Heuvel, editor of The Nation
"The film is a compelling call to action in 2004 and must-see viewing for
all citizens who care about changing the direction of our security policy,
and our country's leadership."

* Martin Sheen, actor and activist
"A powerful documentary. A must see for anyone interested in the truth
about what's going on in Iraq."

This controversial and arresting film takes viewers behind the walls of
government, as CIA, Pentagon and foreign service experts speak out, many
for the first time. Their testimony details the lies, misstatements and
exaggerations that served as the reasons to fight a “pre-emptive” war that
was not necessary. UNCOVERED offers an in-depth look at the actual
arguments, speeches and spin given by President Bush and his senior
advisors before, during, and after the Iraq invasion.

UNCOVERED features compelling footage of Bush, Rice, Cheney, Powell, and
others painting a very clear picture of the distorted intelligence and
"spin and hype" presented to Congress, the United Nations, and the
American people. Those interviewed include former Ambassador Joe Wilson,
weapons inspectors Scott Ritter and David Albright, former Director of CIA
Stansfield Turner, former Asst. Secretary of Defense Philip Coyle,
anti-terrorism expert Rand Beers, former CIA analysts Ray McGovern and Mel
Goodman, former CIA operative Robert Baer, and Washington editor of The
Nation, David Corn.

UNCOVERED has received grass-roots support from progressive organizations
such as MoveOn.org, Alternet.org, The Center for American Progress, The
Nation, Buzzflash, and Working Assets. More than 30,000 DVDs were
distributed to MoveOn members who screened the film at 3,000 house parties
and community screenings, a phenomenon that was widely covered by the
media. "It's pretty amazing," said Eli Pariser, MoveOn.org's international
campaign director, of the demand for the film. "When we first offered it
on our site, we expected to just do a couple thousand copies. But when
23,000 people asked for it, we knew there was something significant about
this movie."

A limited number of review copies of UNCOVERED are available for review.
Please request your copy today.

Disinformation will be holding a media day for UNCOVERED in New York City
on March 29th featuring Robert Greenwald, Joe Wilson and Mel Goodman.

60 Alternative and Independent News Resources About the Iraqi War

As war coverage increases so does criticism that mainstream media outlets don't present the whole story.

More than one thousand professional journalists are currently in Iraq. About 500 "at the frontline" who give seem to report a very one-side picture of the war, often only concentrating on military tactics.

On the other hand there are numerous alternative and independent news sources as well as eye witnesses who report more objectively on the impacts of the war.
