On Friday October 25th, our host Norm Stockwell discussed the film of Dirty Wars with the director, Richard Rowley, and one of writers David Riker as well as what it was like filming Dirty Wars.
Dirty Wars follows investigative reporter Jeremy Scahill, author of the international bestseller Blackwater, into the heart of America’s covert wars, from Afghanistan to Yemen, Somalia and beyond. Part political thriller and part detective story, Dirty Wars is a gripping journey into one of the most important and underreported stories of our time. – Dirty Wars.org
