Documentary about the media coverage of the war in Iraq, focusing on the contrast between the American news and that of Al Jazeera, the independent Arab TV network. Between early March 2003 and the fall of the Saddam Hussein-statue in Bagdad, director Noujaim visited the Al Jazeera headquarter and the press office of US Central Command. She observed journalists of both TV stations at work and contrasts scenes of their reactions during the attacks. This way, American press officers and the journalists of CNN and NBC can have their say as can their Arab colleagues of Al Jazeera.
