ABSTRACT

How can anyone hope to offer a fair picture of the possibility of peace when the press, the only real medium for the masses, is both strictly censored and in the hands of propagandists, warmongers and ideologues? Corday finds no great comfort in the thought that a succeeding generation will be able to make sense of the tangle of emotional storms, idées fixes, exaggerations, half-truths, illusions, linguistic games, lies and deceptions which this war has produced.
